As you like it - favorite color/why - Pink has been a favorite for some time. It has grown on me over the years. I never thought to be a pink person but I have found that I bought cloths, purse, papers, pillows and such and I use if often in my cards.

V - for VELLUM

I like vellum but I have issues with not being able to adhere it down .. I do have some vellum tape that you just put on the back and burnish so that the adhesive stays.. but being there's little texture to the vellum I find it hard to even get the it to stay.. of course the vellum tape is over 20 yrs. old.. lol that could be an issue. But the little placement of the left over diamond painting drills kinda help it stay along with the tape.  I used a scrap of DCWV paper and then used Stampin up thick vellum and Taylored Expressions leaf dies. The sentiment is heat embossed and from Stampin up along with the die. Thought great for a birthday, new job, some sort of accomplishment in life.

PETS

I used a Christmas stamp set from Stampin up for the image. I didn't ink up the mistletoe that is over the cats head.. I thought it's a great birthday card vs. Christmas card.. I colored with copics and added the SU punched heart that I layered to give some depth to it. I stamped the Tech. Tues. sentiment and added to the My favorite things die cut and added some twine and brad so it looks like a sentiment wall hanging. I went over the heart and water with Spectrum Noir sparkle brush.

YOUR FAVORITE THEME CARD FROM 2022

The products are all Stampin up. The card is folded short on the top and folded back to the inside of the card. Then just the edges are adhered so it can be a gift card holder. There is still plenty of room next to the heart section for a sentiment.  I fussy cut the images out and adheard along with the greeting. 

the left part is where the gift holder is and the back side is just to give interest from the front
