Happy Birthday, Sandie !!

Hi friends!! it's Sandie's  birthday today and a lovely Birthday Party celebration has been organized by Nonni and Lynn. I am sure a lot of you already know Sandie from her blog London Days and her stunning CAS cards.  I know her through our Design teams, she is so adorable and sweet. She is always prompt in her response when you have a question for her. She organizes everything so well that we never face a problem and most of all she take out time to visit you and admire your work. Sandie, I haven't said that before but I truly appreciate you and your creative simplicity :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU !! HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SANDIE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.... I wish Sandie, loads of love, happiness and a whole lot of crafty goodness ;)

There is a linky party organized by Nonni at her blog Korttikorkuri Runway Cards. I am so glad to be a part of this lovely celebration :) She is setting up a inlinkz tool, HERE for all of us to join in the celebration. So here's my card for you Sandie...
To make it I did some gold embossing and stamping around the sentiment :) I was inspired by a few challenges to create this one, so linking it up to these...
  


Happy birthday Sandie once again, hope you like my card :)


I am not done yet, while making a card for Sandie, I was struck by an idea seeing the colors at Color Me and the cue card at CASology. So I made another card.
This card was made by masking and inking. I also did second generation stamping on the upper body of the fish to show that it is diving into the water. Since KIS happens to have the challenge that suits my card I will link it there too. Here are the challenges that inspired me for this card design.
1.Color Me #20
