Hello there, Carolina here with a Double Gate Fold Birthday Card I have created for Lora's Birthday!

I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo black in and coloured with alcohol markers. Them fussy cut it the images close to the black line. I used a C9 marker to go around the edge of my images to give them a clean look. I also distress the edges of the designs paper with Shaded Lilac Distress ink.

 I birdie told me one of Lora's favorite colors is purple! So my brain starts to spin and since we are still on Summer I decided to created an outdoor scene, and used this cute stamps image from High hopes Stamps Ladybug Love, Julie's Butterfly, and  Happy Birthday sentiment.
