Ai CHALLENGE 140 "BIG BIRTHDAYS"



Love, love, love the NEW Deep Breath Birthday Stamp Set! Ai has released 2 new Zoo Crew sets today, yeah! The Ai challenge just happens to be Big Birthdays and what better way to say happy birthday than with a BIG fish! 

BIG WISH WITH A BLOW FISH!


This guy is too cute! 


He really came to life by fussy cutting those cheeks and giving dimension to them! A ball stylus was used along with Collall. Clear Wink of Stella was added to the candles, eyes and bubbles and then Viva Gloss Gel over top. "It's your Birthday...Deep Breath" comes with this fabulous image.


Okay, I really love this guy! I made the same card only this time the cake was colored yellow! I didn't puff out his cheeks and he is still fabulous! I can tell that the rubber is going to be burning on this one and he will to be used for a lot of upcoming birthdays!


The inside was left blank to be able to personalize the card. No stamps, just die cuts!
