A Girly Dragon Birthday Card

The challenge this week at the Doodle Dragon Challenge Blog was to make a girly dragon card. So I decided to use this cute little birthday dragon from Dustin Pike's collection. I decided to use the sketch at Papertake Weekly Challenges this week. Also, Charisma Cards had a birthday challenge this week that required a candle to be somewhere on the card!

Dragon's Can Brush Teeth Too!

Hey there! I guess you're wondering why I made 3 cards almost exactly the same. Well my SIL is graduating from Dental Assisting this month and she wanted to give her teachers a thank you card. I remembered this lovely dragon from Dustin Pike and I had to use it! I had been wondering when he would come in handy and now I know. I loved the idea of coloring each dragon a different color. After I lined them up for this photo I realized how cute it would be if these images were framed next to one another in a dentist office! That may just have to be a future gift for my SIL if she gets her Dental Hygiene degree.

Cards, Cards Cards!

Here is a card that I made using a freebie Digi Stamp from Dustin Pike. The caption says "Like a Kite, You Lift Me Up." I kinda borrowed and rephrased the caption from someone else's card using this image. I loved it! The swirly background gives it a look of the sky. I used a q-tip and some blue chalk and swirled it around. The dew drops are made from hot glue that is painted with pink pearl nail polish. Once again, this was an idea that I got from Lindsay. Man that girl is talented!

This is an image I found through google. It is supposed to be a coloring page, but I used it as a digi stamp. The caption is 3-D.

On both of these cards I used one-sided patterned paper and glued them back to back to create the effect of double sided paper. Thanks again Lindsay for the great idea!
