HAPPY BIRTHDAY {Fresh Brewed Designs Girlfriends Challenge}

Girlfriends Challenge
FRESH BREWED DESIGNS

A lovely challenge is currently running over at Fresh Brewed Designs which is GIRLFRIENDS. I have used this fun pair of girls called LIKE TOTALLY 80's, which you can purchase here. Also visit Fresh Brewed Designs' Facebook Page to join in all the fun and surprises, here.

She has been coloured with Copics and dry chalks.  The folded flowers have been created with a scallop square punch. The design papers and crochet flowers are from my stash. The sentiment is from CREATE WITH TLC.  The cloud background has been done with dry chalks.



I would love to try my hand at the following challenges with this creation:
