4 year old card

 Hi Everyone, my card today is for my Great Nephew's 4th birthday. I haven't been too well this last 6 weeks, and I was completely without mojo. I don't have "young" stamps, that i could think of. I didn't fancy any of my digital images, so I went down the svg route and this is what happened.

The paper was chosen before using card to match it. I printed and cut it to size and added it to the card. I cut the candles and sentiment on my Silhouette.  I added 4, of course, for his age. The tiny pieces required tweezers to add to the face. 

I used white pen to add the brightness in the eyes and inked around each candle for shadow. I added ink for the cheeks, but the darker shades wouldn't take it!

White pen and clear glitter pen were added to the flames of the candle card pieces. 

I then wrote the name and added a shadow, and cut it. I hope he likes it.

paper - Sweet Shoppe Designs R. Carlton 2014
candles - My ScrapChick
ink - Distress Oxides
white pen - Posca
glitter pen - Spectrum Noir 
sentiment font - Charade
