My sister-in-law and her granddaughter have birthdays this week and they will be celebrating them together. My niece (SIL's daughter and granddaughter's mother) decided on a theme of panda bears. While she and my daughter are working madly on decorations for the party, including making "bamboo" out of pool noodles and card stock leaves, I got started on birthday cards for each of them, and, yes, I did stick with the theme. :-D Today I'm sharing the one I made for my grandniece and will share the one for my SIL tomorrow.
I searched for clip art, panda images, preferably pre-colored to save time, and found two which I thought really worked well together. I had to check with my niece to ascertain her daughter's favorite color and it turns out it's the same as my own favorite, PURPLE ! How delightful that it worked so well with the image I had chosen.
I embossed a scrap of CS and found another scrap, this time of dp, in the basket, using them to make the background. The card was cut with a Tonic Studios die, then matted in white. The sentiment came from Beccy's Place. I finished the card by adding flowers and gems from Petaloo.
