Happy Birthday

Hi everyone.  The Paper Players sketch challenge intrigued me, so decided to play with it today. This also goes well with the feminine challenge over at Simon Says Stamp.


The flower stamp is from Penny Black called blooming. I watercolored them using Mei Liang watercolors, then cut them out using square nesting dies. I did use a marker to darken in the centers. The flower that's in the circle is fussy cut and popped up using foam dimensional tape. The small happy birthday sentiment is from Jaded Blossom. 

Thanks for stopping by.

What beautiful watercolouring Laurie! I love the way you carried your focal image onto the squares too and the black borders give great definition. Thanks for playing along with my sketch challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
