Bloody Great Birthday at Tiddly Inks

It might be Valentine's Day, but I'm sharing the love with a birthday card. I've been dying to share, but had to wait until it was received.
When I saw this image I had to have it as it is so different and perfect for a few people I know!  You can grab "Bloody Great Birthday" over at the Tiddly Inks Etsy store.


The recipient loves purple, just like me, so I had to make the top and hat band this colour.  The other colours I have kept pretty neutral to make the 'blood' drips stand out more. 

The image comes with extra pieces, so I decoupaged these to give more dimension

You can't have a Bloody Great Birthday without some poison. I continued the bubbles with some gems

I usually use brads or plastic flower centres, so thought it would be cool to use some smaller flowers instead for a different effect

I finished off with a sentiment that I created in Photoshop

February already!? How time flies. We're out of the deep freeze now thankfully, but it's colder again today. I'm warming up with a fun card featuring "King Of The Wild Ones" and "Wryn - Dreadful Dragon". These are great character images for kids' cards and more.


My bestie gave me a huge stack of patterned papers a while ago and this one with jungle leaves was just perfect for my theme. The card is finished off with a fun sentiment, which I have added texture to using Distress Inks. 

"King of The Wild Ones"is a fabulous green textured dinosaur

"Wryn - Dreadful Dragon" is contrasting in a stunning purple.
