Happy Birthday

I don't usually do bright cards but I have this paper so I decided I would use it.  I'm actually fairly happy with the end result - good to go outside the comfort zone sometimes!

I am entering the card into the following challenges:

I have used some bold papers from Kaisercraft teamed with some yellow mesh ribbon.  The image is from My Heart Pieces and coloured with copic markers - YR31, BV04 and some others I forgot to write the numbers down for!!!  The sentiment is from Netty's Cards.  Matting is yellow metallic paper.

Gift Bag

More of a spring gift bag - probably while I am wishing for decent spring weather - at the moment it is starting to feel more like winter!

I have used a template created from a gift bag by Patty Wraps.  The paper is a scrapbook paper that I have had for a while.  I think it is meant to be more of a sympathy paper but teamed with spring flowers it looks spring like.  The image is from My Heart Pieces and is coloured with copic markers  E71, YR20, YG41

I have used papers from my stash along with one from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles.  The image is from My Heart Pieces.  I have added some flower pieces embellished with pearls and some glitter tape.
