Beautiful Birthday

This morning when I decided to make a new card, I didn't have the tool I wanted so I improvised.  I used an eye shadow applicator to sponge on the colors for the background of the card.  I had no set design in mind and just played around until I came up with this card.

Stamp Sets:  Serene Silhouettes, Beautiful Birthday, Tiny Tags; Inks: Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Ink in Crushed Olive, Dusty Concord, Aged Mahogany, Faded Jeans. Black Soot, Fired Brick; Card Stock:  Basic Black, Whisper White, Baja Breeze; Accessories & Tools:  Beautiful Wings Embosslits, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Stardust Clear Gelly Roll Pen, eyeshadow applicator, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine

The little bush in the right corner was made using a stamp from the Tiny Tags set.  It was fun to be able to sit and play for a while today.  Now I'm off to hem a pair of my oldest son's work pants.  At least he didn't ask me to mend anything.  :-)
