Happy Birthday - Paper Smooches Party Pals

My real job is working at a printing company as a production/graphic designer. I've worked there for many years. When I started in my department there was probably over 20 people in all, now there are 3, that's right 3!! Times are tough, printing is a dying industry they keep saying. And yet here we are, the THREE of us - are we the best of the lot or did we just get lucky and are hanging on until there 'aint no more?

One of us 3 is having a birthday - yeah!! So I made her a card. Not just any card, this is my FIRST Copic coloring job with my first Paper Smooches (Party Pals) stamp. I used patterned papers from Simon Says Stamp's 2012 April Card Kit and did my best with my limited skills and number of markers. The sentiment on the front of the card is one that I actual drew out on my computer, gleaming a bit from The Alley Way Stamps type style. Last year for my birthday my family got me a Wacom Tablet. I haven't practiced too much with it, but I know it has great potential.
