Happy 70th Birthday

I discovered last night that one of my neighbours is 70 today, so made this quick card this morning.  I'm entering the Butterfly Challenge 'Spin the Wheel with the Letter C' challenge (I've used cerise and, of course, butterflies).  I'm also entering the Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge 'Special Day' (70th birthday) and the Seize the Birthday 'Anything Goes' challenge.


6" x 6" white matt card blank
Bugaboo 'Tulip Jar' digi stamp
Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
Kars tan embossing mat
Promarkers
Cerise texture and white matt card
Wink of Stella
Computer generated sentiment 'Imprint MT Shadow' font

I resized the digi and added the computer generated sentiment before printing it onto white card.  I die cut and embossed the image using the largest stitched square die.  The tulip jar was coloured with Promarkers before being layered onto cerise card and attached to the card front.  To finish I highlighted the tulip, butterflies and water with a Wink of Stella.
