Alexandra's birthday card

Ooops there's that brick stencil again ... I need to get this off my desk for a week or two ;)
This is hot off the press for my niece, I can't believe she's 7 already!  She's a Valentine's Day baby, so I usually try to include a little heart somewhere too :)

I don't think I've ever seen a pogo stick in real life, it must never have been a 'craze' over here!  Reckon Health & Safety would have a hard hat and elbow and knee pads on her now ;)

Tiddly Inks stamp - coloured with watercolour pencils, sparkle added to her dress and clear gloss to her pogo stick.  My '7' is cut from silver mirror card.

Nah...keep the brick stencil just where it is lady, it's such a great background!! I don't think I have ever seen a pogo stick either...dangerous things I would imagine. Bet Alex loves this card, it's gorgeous xx

I do remember jumping on a pogo stick when I was a little girl. It was loads of fun, once you got the hang of it. Alex is going to love her card. It's so cute! BTW - I love that brick stencil, so it's fine by me if you use it on EVERY card. :)
