Have a wonderful birthday + Pinkfresh NSD challenge

Hello Hello my dear reader,

Hope you are doing well and fine. I am veryyyyyyy happy to write this post and even to create the art I am about to share with you all. Firstly, it is the first ever time for I have created anything using my own family pics, secondly, the scrapbooking layouts, of which I am always super scared to create!!

Can you hear the excitement of myself in my words here already? If not, please just bear with me and I will show you my layout and how it came about and very super happy and elated with what I have achieved. I always look for the inspiration in so many artists around the world and always be in awe of how they create such pretty layouts and they seem so flawless. Well, I did give one a try myself and here is the result: 

I always love colors and rainbow and thought to use them as my guiding stars on the layout as it is very special one for me. This eased me into my art and gave me a confidence to keep working and creating.

I don't own much of pinkfresh studio's scrapbboking stuff but do own their many 6*6 paper packs and have used 2 same pages on a blank white sheet base, used their stencils, stamps and border dies and the magic happened.

Copic colors used: RV02, R02, YR12, Y04, G00, BG01, V15

Products used from Pinkfresh studio line: Just a little lovely stamp set, Slim lacy edgers die, Happy birthday sentiments, Be strong stamp, Painted peony washi tape.
