Birthday Darling

I made this card for today's featured stamper challenge on SCS. I replaced the I-can't-see-a-thing-a-Bella image in the original card here with the Birthday Darling image from the Birthday Darling set from Clear & Simple Stamps.

I kept the layout the same, but adjusted it a bit to fit the size of the image since the Darlings are larger than the Bella images. I colored the Darling with Copic markers to coordinate with the My Mind's Eye paper I used to cover the card base. It's hard to see in the photo, but I added some coordinating Petal Pink Liquid Pearls dots along the bottom of the Darling's skirt. It's been around for a long time, but I've just found this stuff and I'm loving using it as a fun embellishment. You can find it in lots of colors here at i {heart} papers.

I used three Primas, but changed their placement so that all three are at the lower left corner of the image panel. There's a Dew Drop at the center of each one. Instead of using a trio of brads along the the right side of the image panel, I switched to more Dew Drops (I have a lot of them!).
