For You Cupcake

We have some beautiful little girls at church with birthdays coming up. I wanted to personalize a card for each of them. That was easy to do in the coloring of the stamped image girl. It was easy to color their hair the color of the girls' hair.
Alicia is  beautiful little Hispanic girl so I made her card with black hair and brownish skin. Leza is a sweetheart with red hair so that's what her card has!

Materials needed:
Sweet Thing stamp by Penny Black
Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set--Stampin' Up
Melon Mambo card stock--SU
Birds of a Feather patterned paper-SU
Word Window punch
Modern Label punch
Pastels
Q-tips/cotton swabs
hair spray
Coordinating patterned paper 2 1/2 x 3 1/2"
Dahlia adornments--SU
Brads
Glue Dots
Stampin' Dimensionals

I love using pastel chalks. It's one of my favorite mediums! I use cotton swabs to apply them and then apply a quick coat of hair spray. The hair spray is not acid free so don't use it in items you want to archive. The hair spray will brighten the color of the chalks and keep it from smearing.

Things are layered as you see in the picture. I popped the image with the Stampin' Dimensionals.
Have fun with this card!
