Mama Elephant Tiny Heroes birthday card…

Hi everyone!  Back with another birthday card.  This one was for Lizzie Faith who turned to double digits this year!  The Big 10!  Liz is a sweetheart.  Loves to draw, make cards and read!  We have the make cards and reading in common anyway! lol

Lizzie is one out of seven red headed grandchildren.  If you add 2 of our 3 daughters we have 9 red heads in the family.  😀

So this little hero girl had to have red hair.  She’s colored with Copic Sketch markers.

I masked off the white circle and light path, inked the background, then masked to color in the yellow with Distress ink Squeezed Lemonade and an ink blending tool.  I can’t remember what colors I used for the sky!  I know I used the Frost Shimmer Spray on it though and then tapped the bottle to get it to drop the splats.

Lizzie is a kitty lover too.  They have outside cats and seems like they have kittens a couple times a year.  She takes care of them and loves them…she’ll be a good mom some day!  So the kitten hero was perfect for her too!

The skyline is from an Open Studio Memory Box set.

It’s always so fun when you’re trying to get a card made to ‘fit’ a person and you feel you succeed in the end!  You know what I mean, right?!
