Happy Birthday Sarah, Kirsten and Makayla

The summer is a busy time for birthdays in my friend Linda's house. Keeping that in mind, she chose a festive theme for the Sisterhood for the month of April;. A birthday card to fit any of her daughters upcoming age groups, 16, 11 and 7.

I know Kirsten (almost-11) is not a fan of pink, so with her in mind I chose turquoise and purple. Of course it helped that I had this patterened paper on hand.

The sheep (Pink Cat Studio) is covered with Liquid Applique except for her arms legs and face which are touched a bit with Prismacolor markers. The cupcake and 'hands' are raised on a dimensional, making it look as though her arms are really attached to her body.

To Sarah, Kirsten and Makayla - I hope each of you ladies has a very happy birthday!

Great card, Gael!
I love the color palette of this!

Kirsten already saw this card and really loves it. I love the colors. Girls don't always need to have pink in their lives to be a girl. Thanks for putting so much thought into their card and making it such a fun month to be the hostess.
