Birthday Girl

This card was made with minutes to spare. My daughter came home yesterday and said she needed a card by Tuesday (today) for her friend.....aaahhh! Didn't have time to do anything yesterday so earlier today I headed straight for my Stamp Addict's Girls stamps and trusty Cricut machine and came up with this. The green frame, sentiment, circle, flower and numbers have all been cut using George and Stretch Your Imagination cartridges. The stamped image has been coloured using Promarkers, the background has been made by dragging dusty concorde and peeled paint distress ink pads across the base card in opposite directions to each other to create a kind of wild tartan pattern. As you can see distress ink has been applied to most bits of the card. I can't seem to make a card without applying even just the smallest bit of distress ink in some way:)
