Happy Birthday Wreath

Hi everyone!  It's Kim here to share a birthday card I created using the Seasonal Wreaths set.  And the fun idea that popped in my head as I sat down to make my card...

I love all of the wreaths included in this great set (five in all!) but I was really drawn to the one made from small circles...it reminded me of those Christmas ornament wreaths you see from time to time over the holidays.  I just knew that I didn't want to color all those little circles so I grabbed my bag of Liquid Pearls and got to to work!  It only took a few minutes to fill in all of the circles with pink, silver, and yellow...and it took about 24 hours for all that liquid to dry!

Once the pearls were set I created by card using coordinating colors (the paper is from My Minds Eye) and a sketch from a recent Paper Crafts magazine.  I added the Friendship Script in the background along with some rhinestone bling!  I hope you enjoyed today's card and that you're inspired to think about coloring mediums other than markers...

Enjoy!
