Eliza's First Birthday

I've had a number of family birthdays over the 
last few months. Here's one for my grand niece 
who turned one in April. Lots of colourful flowers 
and a little kitty makes a perfect spring birthday card!!

Mavis Has A Daisy (Stamping Bella) was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with copic markers. 

Mavis was masked and the remaining details were stamped and coloured: 
* Picket Fence (Clear Dollar Stamps) with Memento Rich Cocoa and copic markers; 
* Grass (Lovely Layers) with Spring Moss and Simply Chartruese inks; 
* Flowers (Garden Variety) with Summer Sunrise, Canyon Clay, Berry Sorb et inks (PTI) and Orange, Hollyhock and Crystal Blue inks (Close To My Heart). An enamel dot (My Mind;s Eye) accents the center of the flower.

* Sentiment (Framed Out #1) with Canyon Clay ink

Blue card stock (Recollection) was used for the card base, a mat for the focal panel and the flower accent (Bloom Builders #3)
Papers from Echo Park's  "hello Summer" 6" x 6" pack were used for the card front and the paper pieced dress; Canyon Clay Bitty Dot Patterned Paper (PTI) was used as a mat for the front panel and the number "1" (Number Time Trio) on Mavis's dress.
Card Interior
A strip of patterned paper was attached to the bottom 
of a white card stock panel.
Sentiment - Stylish Sentiments: Birthday.
