When I saw this stamp set I knew I had to have it.  It's so versatile and can be used for any occasion. Plus, there are so many options the possibilities are endless.  I wanted to keep the card really natural looking so I used a background stamp and white embossed woodgrain.
 
 
I watercolored the plants using distress markers.  I heat embossed my sentiment on vellum using black embossing powder.  I like how some of the plants are in the pot and another is behind it.  I think it give dimension to the focal point.

An amazing birthday!

Today, I simply water colored using distress markers.  No embellishments, sparkle, or bling just simple water coloring and boy do I think this card is just the cutest!
 

 
I gave each element a wash coat of the lightest color, then after that dried, I added the darkest colors where shadow would be.  I used a clear block to scribble color down and used a blender pen to pick p that color and add it to the picture.
 
 
I then took my Evergreen Bough distress inks and stamped some stars in the sky.  This entire card was made with just one stamp set and distress markers.  I encourage you to try this simple one layer card.
