Better late than never to do this challenge. I used SU whisper white as the base. The strawberry dp is from DCWV. I layered with glittery redish dp and glittery greenish dp. I stamped the image with black stazon on 140# watercolor paper. I used my primascolor pencils with blending stumps and mineral spirits. I added a polka dot flower brad and a red rhinestone brad for the center. I added a ribbon slider through the flower ribbon and stuck a happy birthday hardware onto the slider. The image is raised using 3D squares. On the inside it says "Have A Mice Day". This was for a guy at work that needed a happy birthday card for his mother.

This is so adorable! Wonderful coloring and layout. I'm sure your co-worker was ecstatic to be able to give this to his mom for her birthday. And I'm sure she was overjoyed to have received such a sweet hand-made card. tfs
