Happy Day...

 I make soooo many birthday cards - and this Sassy Cheryl digi is a great image for me.  Fun to color and obviously delivers the message.

I grabbed scraps from my endless stash for the background.  This designer paper looked like exploding fireworks celebrating the occasion to me.  There was just enough of the blue DP for the sentiment punched layer and the five punched "dots" on the upper left corner.
 This close up shows the dots I have added to the headband and dress.  This was done with Duo Glue applied with a "Fine Liner Calligraphy Pen" from ArtQuest.  Once dry and still tacky, I applied the foil so the dots are extremely shiny and multicolored.



CHALLENGES:
IMAGES:  The focal image is from Sassy Cheryl; the sentiment is by Hero Arts
PAPER:  Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80# Cover Wt. used for the image panel; DP and the base CS is from my endless stash of scraps.
INKS: The image is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black & colored with Copics:
