BIRTHDAY BLESSINGS (1)

For this nature themed birthday card, I used the Windmill stamp set from Avery Elle.

For the background, I used Mermaid cardstock. I ink blended the top with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I used the Grassy Hillside Borders and Simple Grassy Hillside Borders to die cut some Cilantro cardstock. I ink blended the top edges with Lucky Clover Oxide Ink.

I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Windmill: R14 - R46 - R59/ C0 - C3 - C5/ E31 - E33 - E35/ BG72 - BG18/ BG000
Trees: BG72 - BG18/ G43 - G46/ E31 - E33 - E35
Flowers: Y15 - Y17/ BG72 - BG18/ G43 - G46/ RV10 - R83
Toadstools: R14 - R46 - R59
Bugs: YR21 - Y38/ Y15 - Y17/ C3/ W5 - W7/ BG000

I fussy cut all the images (which was a lot of work) and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment and added the swirly lines with Manatee Ink from Lawn Fawn.

I haven't used this set in a while, so it was fun to create a completely new scene with it!
