I am playing along with AAA Birthday Card Challenges this month. I have been sending birthday cards to co-workers all year and am always in need of inspiration.
The Challenge #22 was to use one large image. This is an older image from an unknown stamp set. I cut her out by hand. I stamped her using a combo of inks: Stampin; Up! Pretty Peacock and Gina K. Sea Glass. I used a stencil for the background and kept everything pretty monochromatic.
I added a sentiment inside and called it a day. Hope you like it. I will be giving this to a co-worker tomorrow.
