Birthday Wishes

Today I'm going to show you a fat page that I made for a friend of mine...it's late so I hope that she's going to like it enough to forgive me lol. For those of you that don't know what a fat page is, here is a link to check them out. They are lots of fun to make, but a bit of a challenge...at least for me *chuckling*. As this one is going to be going into an album of fat pages I didn't want to go too hog wild on the embellishments (not to mention it has to be mailed airmail and that costs a fortune!), so this is what I came up with.
The image is one of the new one's at Digistamps4Joy and it's called Best Friends. I coloured it with my Crayola Pencil crayons and oms. I added some white accents on the dog and girl with my white gel pen (thanks Jen...hope I did o.k. lol). The cs is from SU, the pink dp is Pink Punch Fourish by BoBunny and the other dp is from my stock. Sorry I don't have a name for it, but I do know that it is by K & and Company. The corner punches are from the Vintage set by Cuttlebug cut out of cs from SU. The sentiment is one I did up on my computer, the flatbacked pearls are by Recollections and the heart gems are from my local dollar store.
The other side of the flat page is done with a word art freebie by Digital Doodling.
I coloured this image again with my Crayola pencil crayons and oms plus my pink metallic gel pen and white gel pen. The gel pens were used to make it look like there is pink and white baby's breath around the wreathe. The brown cs is from SU and the little butterfly are from my local dollar store.
On the inside of the "card" on my fat page I used 2 sentiments that I found on Splitcoast Stampers.

Thanks for looking.....Chalene
