Birthday Wishes - Popcorn.

G'day!
I am determined to use my stash this year... this includes my stamps that I have bought and not used yet!  So here goes... Popcorn the Bear by Crafter's Companion... The stamp set is Shooting Stars... Adorable stamps don't you think?

Bear Birthday
 I used my:
Popcorn Bear stamp (Crafter's Companion).
Ultimate Crafter's Companion - scoring and cutting.
Faber Castell Pencils.
Silhouette Cameo - made the heart balloons.
Cuttlebug and Swiss Dots folder - embossed the bases.
Memento Black Dye Ink.
Papers and card from stash.
Souffle Pen - Blue, for the balloon strings.
Double sided tape.
Foam adhesive to make the easel catch.

Challenges I am entering with this card:


Ok I think that about does it lol  I better go do some housework *hugs*


 Below you will find a few images of my colouring / shading as I went along.



Happy Crafting!  *hugs* Sarah!
