Carla is our hostess for the WT challenge this week. Despite the flu I had great fun preparing samples for this.
You can find what the challenge is all about HERE.
I absolutely LOVE the technique from TLC438 and often when I make one background for a card I make another one to tuck in my background box. Pulling one of those out and combining it with a scrap of DOX on glossy photo paper that was in my box, and a spare ladybird, this came together very quickly. I stamped Prickles round the edges of the birthday panel after die-cutting the sentiment, and backed it with black card, then popped it up on foam. I added plenty of Stickles to the curved arrow to make it stand out a little against the background.

Great job on the bg. Love all the arrows and hearts behind the foil and the addition of an arrow on the front. The prickles add nicely to the grunge look. Thanks for making a cute, vibrant sample for my challenge, Sabrina.

I need to remember to make multiple technique BGs so I can pull from a stash and make cards quicker. I need to finish using up the large pile of stuff that I am trying to get rid of so I can do more techniques and have those available. One pile at a time. LOL! Absolutely gorgeous card.
