Party Dragon

Happy Thursday High Hopes Fans! The week is flying by - tomorrow is Fri-YAY! 

We are having a month long party at High Hopes and the DT is playing along with a Birthday theme. 

My post for today features an older High Hopes stamp and sentiment called "Party Dragon" and "Dot Happy Birthday To You!". How cute is this guy jumping out of the box with confetti and balloons! 

Party Dragon is coloured with alcohol markers and then fussy cut leaving a thin white edge. He is mounted on card stock and fussy cut again leaving a thin red border. A white metallic pen was perfect for adding some fun polka dots to his bright blue box and Stickles were added to the confetti dots for a bit of sparkle. 

Matching red with white polka dot ribbon was added to patterned paper from Photo Play to complete my layout.

Party Dragon

Hello High Hopes Fans!!!

 

Happy Saturday! For a fun birthday card, I just adore this image...

 Lisa 

 

This is Party Dragon (Q134).  Don't you just love this little dragon? 

 

I started by colouring the image with Tombow Markers and water. After the image was all coloured and dry, I applied Glossy Accents on the balloons for some dimension.  

 

The pattern paper is from Bo Bunny - Our Little Monster 6x6 Paper Pad, along with some SU Cherry Cobbler and White cardstock.  The image was cut down to an appropriate size, then a small SU corner punch was used to add the decorative corners.  The sentiment was from some old rub-ons I had kicking around in my stash.  To complete this card, a strip of ribbon with a bow tied on was fastened down.  This was such a fun card to make!  

Supplies Used:

Ink - Tombow Markers - 055, 977, 847, 443, 126 and N95.  Versamark Ink Pad and Black Embossing Powder.
 

Paper - Bo Bunny - Our Little Monster 6x6 Paper Pad; SU Cherry Cobbler and White Cardstock.
 

Misc - Glossy Accents, SU Real Red Grosgrain Stitched Ribbon, SU Corner Punch, Deja Views Rub-Ons, Water Brush, and Glue Dots.
