It's March Blog Hop time!

Here is this month's gorgeous inspiration photo:



I loved the color scheme, and went with that as my inspiration. The background of my card was created by adhering strips of the star border die cuts in Aqua Mist onto the Aqua Mist base.



The focal image is from 2012 Birthday Tags, which I stamped twice.



Thanks for taking a look!

Happy Birthday

While playing around with my dies for my Make It Monday card yesterday, I cut apart a couple of my Rosie Posie dies. Then, I decided to make this card!




I stamped the flowers onto the Sweet Blush cardstock using a pink Brilliance ink, and added some shading with my Copics.



The Soft Stone layer was impressed with the Woodgrain impression plate.

Thanks for taking a look!

Another fun Make It Monday challenge!

For my card, I used the In the Meadow sleigh die to cut out the horse portion.



The sentiment comes from Snowflake Serenade.

Thanks for taking a look!
