Here we are again.....High Hopes Ch#14....and it's a fun one!..Niki wants to see...."Dude Cards". Check out all the Fabulous Dude cards here and if you get a chance ....join in to win some fabulous High Hopes Stamps.
I also made this card for this weeks Cute Card Thursday challenge which is to have a little humor in your card.
On to the card.......
The Cute dragon on this card is from High Hopes and is called "Gavin' The Givin' Dragon"....the balloons are also from High Hopes.....http://www.highhopesstamps.com/
All the images are colored with prismacolor pencils (oms) and H20's
The dragon is is cut out and set pop dots....as is part of the star and ballons. If you look really closely you will see I added a tuft of hair to his head. Just a little bit of cut up fibres....set on a little dot of Tacky Glue.
I stamped the happy birthday on the balloons with the SU stamp set Amazing to Zany....just the perfect size for these balloons...and added embroidery floss for strings.
I used my label maker for the Hot Stuff sentiment...it worked so well and I was so surprised that I could fold it over like this on the corner.
The star I just drew on a piece of basic grey yellow paper...cut it out....and inked the edges with close to cocoa....added the button.
Stamps: High Hopes, SU Amazing to Zany
Paper: georgia pacific, dcwv, basic grey, su kraft
Ink: versafine black, bashful blue, creamy caramel, close to cocoa
Accessories: label maker, CB folder, button, cord, embroidery floss, foam dimensionals, tacky glue
