Birthday Spike (with a twist!) plus challenges...



Check out Spike! Isn't he the cutest? Along with Coco, he has got to be one of my faves over at the DigiStamp Boutique.

One of my favorite things about Digis is the fact that you can resize them. So that's what I've done here x 3, to make Spike his own little family! I did it in a 'Word' document.
I have coloured Spike and his buddies with Promarkers;
Sandstone, Satin, Tan & Ivory
For the cakes; Rose Pink, Pink Carnation, Ivory, & Lilac (for the candle)
Plus Stickles Stardust to add sparkle.
Sorry for all the pics, I'm just trying to show the sparkle. Why does it never come across as well on photos?! If you click on this one below, you can see the sparkle a bit better.

I have also used;
Papers
; Pink Petticoat downloaded papers & kraft card.
Tools; Marianne Designs Frame dies (the flourishes), Martha Stewart Double Loop border punch & Doily punch, X cut leaf embossing punch and Scallop border punch, Woodware inverted corner rounder.
Embellishments; Crochet flowers, paper flowers, card candy, ribbon, raffia ribbon & more Stickles!


I am entering this into the following challenges;

Passion For Promarkers 'Anything Goes!'
I Love Promarkers for the sketch
My Partner In Crafting Crime for 'Birthday cards'

Well, gotta go now, but I'll be back tonight to catch up on your blogs.
Thanks for looking :-)
