Celebrate card (The Stamping Chef image)

Hi everyone,

Here is my last card for today, hope you've enjoyed seeing all 3 of them. I have to make a couple of male cards this weekend so they may be next on my blog.

This card was created using a sassy girl from The Stamping Chef. I love how her hair flows, it's really easy to colour. For a change I went around her with a mustard coloured copic rather than my usual blues. 

I have used a Jasmine puffy flourish (orange) and Antique Brown rhinestones from my company, Flourish with a Bling, who are having a 50% off sale this month, see below for more details or click on our business name to be taken to the website.
