It's a banner birthday celebration!


     Today marks the beginning of a month of birthday celebration fun at There She Goes Clear Stamps.  Make sure you pop over to the TSG blog for all the info on todays challenge AND the fun and games Jessie will be telling you all about starting tomorrow.
     Our first challenge of the month is "Banners with a birthday" theme.  The new "Bring the Giggles" slumber party set is so stinkin' adorable I couldn't resist using some more stamps from the set on this card.  Nothing screams birthday for girls like a slumber party.  I also used one of the sentiments from the "Make a Wish" set.  If you love the Giggles set as much as I do you can snap it up on sale right now along with any other TSG goodies.


     I didn't do a whole lot of coloring on this one, but here's a close up of the image.  Sorry for the bad photo.  I couldn't get the lighting to adjust better on the close up.


Copics Used:
skin E000, E00, E11, R20
hair E31, E33, E35, E39, E79
clothing and headband R35, R37, R39, R43, R59
bear E21, E23, E25, E27
ground E40, E42, E43

Hope you all have a great week.  For those of you in the US, enjoy your Labor Day holiday!
