My card is made for the FOSTV challenge #7 at Mark's Finest Papers, A Heinrich Company Speedy TV. http://mfpspeedytv.ning.com/ The challenge is to make a birthday card.
I'm using a soon-to-be-released stamp set called Peaceful Nuthatch. The sentiment if from MFP and is from the set, What a Fox, also to be released this month.
I really love Peaceful Nuthatch for Christmas, birthday, masculine, so many ways it can be used.
I colored the image and masked for sponging. Added some framing, a fanciful flourish in mirror paper, and a flower. I hand cut a pennant for behind my sentiment.

How very pretty, Benzi! I love this image (I think that I may need this set!) and your gorgeous layout. The rounded corners really complement the frameabilities design and the gold flourish is a gorgeous way to weave everything together. Wonderful card, my friend!
