My Daughter Chloe's 15th Birthday card (Aurora Wings image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

 My last card of the night to post, phew! I created this centre step card for my daughter's 15th Birthday which is about to happen tomorrow. I used a beautiful image from Aurora Wings and coloured it up with my Copics. I used a white paint pen to give her eyes a little "glimmer". I added some Chloe pearl flourishes that were actually named after my daughter as I designed them for my company, Flourish with a Bling (click on the name and it will take you to our store - little secret for my followers, we have a 50% off sale happening throughout April). I love how the card turned out, I hope she does too.

    So nice to see you back again, Lucy! I did notice that you haven't been around and figured you were just enjoying life - and I was right! Your cruise sounds delightful! Have never been on a cruise myself - what a fun time you had! I browsed through all your cards as I searched for this post to find out what's been going on with you, and they are all gorgeous! Of course you might guess that your Di's Digis cards are my favourites - such cute little critters! Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such a lovely comment!
