*well birthday really, but that didn't roll off the tongue as easily.
Anyway, I made this card for my mother-in-law for her birthday next week. I took another lesson from Lindsay the Frugalcrafter and just kept working my pencils rather than relying on any solvent based blender. I LOVE how it all turned out. Now if I had been clever I would have told you how this was all planned out. Honestly I was playing with my Prismacolors after not getting the results I wanted with my normal watercolor pencils. It wasn't necessarily bad just not what I wanted.
Also what I didn't want was my flower floating in the middle of the page or to die cut or fussy cut it so I cut a mask and stamped around it. It was definitely out of my comfort zone but I think it works.
