Bright Birthdays!

Morning all!

I hope you're all keeping warm and dry in this miserable weather, sadly I've been soaked to the bone 3 times in 5 days and now i'm feeling it - sore throat, headache, aching bones - yup i'm battling flu-ey symptoms! time to break out the lemsips!

Anyway, enough of that, time to share a birthday card with you. I made this for a good crafting friend of mine whose birthday was yesterday. I've been dying to share it just to prove I have been making cards but couldn't until today! lol! 

I used the fabulous freebie Ava by SC and coloured her with promarkers in oranges and pinks. I teamed her up with a chalked oval which I glittered the edge of, some peachy/gold ribbon, pearls fromm stash and two fabulous papers from my new stack Boho Chic - First Edition paper.

Sorry the images aren't great, I've had to send my normal camera in for a service prior to my holiday as it got soaked in my bag the other weekend, so i'm using a really old camera that has no light level balance on it. Hopefully normal service will be resumed soon.

Until then, I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
The Pink Elephant - Vibrant Colours
Simon Says - Celebrate with gems
Saturated Canary - Anything goes

Until next time, happy crafting!
