Since church was cancelled for today due to snow and ice here in Virgninia, I had the time to play with today's Featured Stamper challenge!!! I was excited to see Mary was today's featured stamper. Mary is so sweet and her gallery is just full of eye candy!!!! Congrats Mary!!!
After pinpointing several I wanted to case, I narrowed down my pick for today's challenge to this card . Since I wanted to make the card my own, I changed the colors, papers and stamps and cased her layout.
Love your card Chris. I especially love the chalkboard technique and your layers have so much texture that it makes for a very unique yet eye catching design. A nice take on Mary's layered card.

A delightful b'day card filled with charming elements as the chalkboard sentiment, tiny houndstooth DP and ditzy floral bg, Chris. Loved the textural contrast of the rough burlap and the silky ribbon too.

Love your take on Mary's card. That chalkboard technique is getting more compelling every time I see it! Love the mix of prints and textures in your card. Lovely!
