Sweet 16


 Good morning and happy weekend. 
This fortnight our challenge theme at Sweet Stampin' is
INSPIRED BY...A SONG/BOOK/FILM
I think you can probably guess the song I chose!!! Not very original but I needed to make a card for Granddaughter Ruby. It's hard to believe that our sturdy little tomboy has grown into a tall and willowy young lady- but she still gives the best hugs!! 
The image I used is one of Mo's, coloured with copics and sporting a paper-pieced dress. I've added lots of sparkle to the balloons, which of course you can't see! 
I cut a fancy shaped aperture int a square of white card and embossed the remainder, added a stencilled panel behind, matted it onto the same DP I used for the dress, fussy cut my image and popped on top. Die cut sentiments and some sparkly gems to finish.
There's plenty more ideas over at Sweet Stampin'- and we're looking forward to seeing what inspires you!
Thanks for visiting
