So today is the day! After coloring, \u00a0I smoothed out the blends a little using Prismacolor pencils then I die cut it a couple of times w\/ 2 sizes of large ovals. \u00a0I didn&#8217;t have a pierced oval that large so I did it the old fashioned way&#8230;w\/ the SU piercing set. The outer frame is actually popped up just a bit from the \u00a0rest of the image. Due to the size of the image, there wasn&#8217;t a lot of room left for a greeting but I had a die cut that fit in pretty well. I double stacked it, black on white to give it a little depth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Here&#8217;s a look at the inside &amp; below it are the Copics I used.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25980 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749-349x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"349\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749-349x400.jpg 349w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749-153x175.jpg 153w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-inside-00749.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 349px) 100vw, 349px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25977 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739-400x283.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739-400x283.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739-175x124.jpg 175w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739-600x425.jpg 600w, https:\/\/thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Red-Bday-Flowers-copics-00739.jpg 668w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Thanks so much for stopping by!

Her gallery is full of beautifully colored images &amp; fun designs. After much browsing, I chose THIS to case. I liked the image running over onto the circular frame &amp; the flower theme so I kept those, but I used different images, different colors &amp; I used a die cut for the greeting instead of stamping it. I&#8217;ve had this image for awhile &amp; I&#8217;ve been wanting to get it out &amp; use it. So today is the day! After coloring, \u00a0I smoothed out the blends a little using Prismacolor pencils then I die cut it a couple of times w\/ 2 sizes of large ovals. \u00a0I didn&#8217;t have a pierced oval that large so I did it the old fashioned way&#8230;w\/ the SU piercing set. The outer frame is actually popped up just a bit from the \u00a0rest of the image. Due to the size of the image, there wasn&#8217;t a lot of room left for a greeting but I had a die cut that fit in pretty well.
