Okay I am on it. 

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

Here is the card that I did for your inspiration.

One of my favorite images from Power Poppy is this Countryside Bouquet.  I have colored it up many times and love doing it every time. I added a twist for this card. After coloring it, I die cut it with a  round die and then placed a stencil over the top.  Sponging some Distress Oxide ink in Tumbled Glass. I also used that stencil in the background from Memory Box called Textured Distressed Grid.  The sentiment is from Paper Trey Ink and the banner is DieNamics. 

Ok, now it is your turn to come up with a beauty! 


Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!

    Well look at you, getting all fancy with the stenciling. I love the idea and will file it away for future reference. As always, you certainly do Marci's illustrations justice. Your coloring is FABULOUS!!!! I LOVE this card, the design is spectacular.

    Agree with TaeEun - it is a magnificent bouquet. But I also love how you've stencilled around it - gives it a vignette effect and I really love it! The blue grids really supports the bouquet so well.
