Floral Happy Birthday Card

Hello crafty friends!  Have you tried any of Altenew's marker coloring sheets?  I tried one out for my card today, and I really love them!  These are preprinted onto smooth cardstock and come with 12 designs.  There are two of each, one in a bold black outline and another in a subtle gray outline for a no-line coloring look.

This beautiful floral image that I colored today comes from the Botanical Elegance marker coloring sheets set.  Another first for me is using Altenew's alcohol markers!

I selected one of the 12 prints that I wanted to use from the Botanical Elegance set.  I colored the image using nothing but the alcohol markers from the Cottage Garden Set.

I thought I was going to do something different in my card design, but after I finished the coloring, I just did not want to add another image or cut it up a lot smaller.  So I decided to trim it into a 5" square.  I glued it to a card base that I made from Mountain Pine cardstock and measures 5-¼" square.

The sentiment is one that I had previously made from Spellbinders Always and Forever Sentiment Strips press plate.

I added a few coordinating green enamel dots for a bit of bling.

After using these Botanical Elegance Marker Coloring Sheets, I can definitely say that I recommend them!   The cardstock is smooth, and I really love that I don't have to worry about any ink from stamping will get smeared while coloring!

During this week of our Thanksgiving holiday, I hope you realize how thankful I am for those of you that stop by here!
