Happy Birthday from Dotty

“Hello Ai Fans !!”
Today’s Thursday challenge is “Any Sentiment” , this was really hard as Ai has many awesome sentiments but the one I choose was one I bought from the very beginning , I got it to make humorous birthday cards  “Happy 29th  Birthday from your 110 lb friend “(sku # F3572 ) how funny is that , I choose Dotty (sku # U2778 ) to go along with this sentiment , she is whirling and spinning and having a good time and check out those bloomers.. lol ..she makes me chuckle .

I did a technique on this card that allows the image to stick out from the spellbinder die and not be use off and have to paste it back on , you stamp your image and then lay your die of choice over the image you then pencil the inside if the die around the image that will stick out

you then remove the die and cut around the image that sticks out just a little bit past the pencil line (  use a pencil so you can erase the line when done, I used an ink pen so it would show up ) , then you slip the die back over the image and the parts you cut out should be over the die so it wont cut when you run it thru the big shot or cuttle bug
next I paper pieced Dotty’s dress and bloomers and colored her with my copic markers , I then masked off the image and chalked around her with blue chalk
I used this label die and modified it by cutting one side off , I cut ,embossed and chalked it while it was still in the die (TIP : don’t be afraid to use what you have ,modify it to fit your needs )

I used this punch for the front edges of the card and then I cut out one flower from this punch and made a flower for the inside of the card
Supplies used : Happy 29th sku#F3572 , Dotty sku #U2778 , Chalk , Fancy tags three (Spellbinders ) ,copics , MS punch , sizzix oval dies ,gelly roll glitter pen, ribbon,glossy accents
