Birdie Brown is celebrating their 2nd Birthday this month! Torico is hosting two challenges this month as part of the celebration. The first challenge is to create a card with a Birdie Brown image with a birthday theme. I used this adorable image called Girl-Just bloomed for my card.
And Vera is this week's challenge hostess for There She Goes and her challenge is to use black cardstock for matting. I used actual card stock for the Birthday sentiment, but created a faux black mat for the image. I learned this trick awhile back and it's great when you need the appearance of a fine black mat without wasting card stock and having the extra bulk. All you need is a Sharpie marker and a ruler (if the edge is straight) then run the black Sharpie along the edges.
Thanks for stopping by for a closer look! I always enjoy reading your comments.
