Prize is $10 AUD Gift Certificate

I chose Birthday Mouse which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and die cut with Scalloped Rectangles Die from La-La Land Crafts, before colouring with the following Copics markers:

• mouse - E000, E30, E31, E33, E35, R20
• cake - V01, V12, V15
• icing - E40, E41, E42, E43, E44, V12, V15
• plate - B14, B16, B18
• balloons purple - V0000, V000, V01, V12, V15 or BV000, BV00, BV01
• balloons blue - B14, B16, B18
• balloons yellow - Y11, Y13, Y15
• outline on scallops - BV01

I finished the balloon strings and lettering with my Denim Blue Prismacolour pencil. As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Here are a couple close ups of the colouring:

I then adhered the coloured image on to a Kraft card from Envelope Solutions.

Here is another photo of the finished card:
