I created this birthday card for the distressing challenge at Mo's Digital Challenge. The sketch that I used is from this month's challenge at CLP Challenges. The base of my card is 5x5 out of mocha divine cardstock. I cut a piece of berry blush the same size as the card and distressed it by ripping and curling all four edges. Then I added brown ink to all four edges. I added this piece on top of the card base. I cut a small rectangle out of a pink fancy swirl patterned paper and added brown ink to all four edges of it. I punched a piece of white cardstock using an eyelet lace border punch. I added brown ink to the punched edge and added it to the piece of patterned paper. Then I added it to the left side of the card. I added a piece of brown ribbon down the middle of the patterned piece. I cut a small piece out of mocha divine and added it to the right side of the card in the middle. The image I used is called Baby Fairy Flora. I colored the image using crayola and prisma colored pencils. I added brown in to the edges and added it to the middle of the card. I added crystal stickles to the fairy's wings.
I stamped the sentiment onto white cardstock and tore and curled the edges. I added brown ink on all four edges. I added a pink paper flower to the bottom right corner. Before adding the flower to the card I added brown ink around the edges and lightly in the middle of it. I also added a cream colored pearl to the center of the flower. I added three cream colored pearls to the bottom left corner and three to the top right corner.
