Birthday cards ...

 There are 4 birtdays in 3 days to celebrate ,,, one of Ellie's friend's, one of the children I mind, Ellie's and my nephew's!!  I was ready with 2 of them, but still needed to make Ellie's and Conor's ...

 
 For Ellie's I used this fabulous digi of Krista's called Ellie's birthday (thank you so much sweetie, you've made her day!!) and coloured it with promarkers.  The dp is Basic Grey Green at Heart and I added a pearl swirl, a grungeboard number 7, some ribbon and some lace.  I glossy accented the balloons for extra shine!!

Challenges:
Sketch Saturday - sketch
Do you stack up - ribbon
Crafts and Me - pearls and swirls
Cute Card Thursday - its just a number
Saturated Canary - Anything Goes
Passion for Promarkers - celebrations
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

 And here is Conor's card ... I used Rock Idol from Sugar Nellie's Manga collection and coloured him in with promarkers.  The dp are from Cuddly Buddly.  I left it really quite simple ... being a 10 year old he's not into fuss!!

Challenge:
Stamp with Fun - sketch

A great set of cards. Any girl would be perfect for the first card, and any boy would love to rock it out! Thanks for playing along at DYSU.
