Design notes for the thanks for birthday gifts card:

a. this is a 1 layer card not a traditional folded card base
b. the digi came colored --however I added yellow colored pencil to the hat, shorts, socks and pink ruffled under trim plus the diagonal stripes on her shirt
c. I did step b because there are some challenge blogs that will not accept pre-colored digital images. I think if you see the original, you will notice that I've added enough to make it coordinate with my patterned papers and puffy alpha stickers.
d. the 2 patterned papers are not quite half sheets (originals = 6" square) with the blue cardstock base are from partial pads/sets that I've been trying to 'annihilate' since mid-June!!!!
e. all paper edges have been inked black

More scanned and/or cropped photos:

Maybe I should have named this Rainbow Brite Emma? She's a super sweet darling little gal that loves color!!!...a girl after my own heart!
