Karen's colors for this week are perfect for Christmas but I am done with that for this year so today my card is for a birthday. Beautiful colors with a dessert option to fussy cut. I only cut the butterfly this week.
Thanks for taking a look !

You have adapted these colours beautifully into this birthday card, Becky. Love the bold bouquet and the lovely green butterfly. Great collage and awesome little banner detail

This card is beyond beautiful, Becky, and I was blown away when I saw that you colored it with Prismacolor Pencils and OMS. I love the effect you achieved, and now I need to pull mine out an practice! I love the bit of Cherry Cobbler seam binding peeking out, as well as the clever way you placed the banners. But most of all, those flowers! Oh, my!

Lovely birthday card. Like you - I am done with Christmas things at the moment and it is just so refreshing to see this beautifully coloured card. Its time to start working on the Birthday Cards again.

Becky, your coloring is so beautiful! The shading is fabulous and love the soft shadow you created around your image! Love these Penny Black collage style stamps! What a fabulous job you did embellishing!

This is so pretty -- I love your coloring, and that you did it old school with pencils. Your shading in blue is really effective. This card has a lot of dimension - your flowers look so real I could touch them. Lovely!
