I focused on Liz's:
-celebrate/birthday theme
-multiple die cuts used to form one word (image in my case)
I changed:
-colours
-shapes of die cuts
-no stamping
I used the Winter Window die set to cut the rectangles and then used repositionable tape to hold them together while I stamped the blossom branch from Backyard Bird Friends twice with embossing ink. Then I embossed the images with gold.
Next, I used red Copic markers to colour the outside of each rectangle, going deeper in colour near the bottom edges.
I popped up the 5 panels on a black panel and then cut 'celebrate' from Letterboard Script 1 3 times - one white and 2 black. I embossed one with the same gold powder and then stacked them up.
I trimmed the black panel so that it was 4.25 x 4. Before I glued it onto a white cardbase, I used the lightest red marker to colour a strip at the top and bottom.
