Happy Birthday, Miss Vicki!

Today is our very own Miss Vicki's (of All I Do is Stamp fame) birthday!  Happy birthday, girlfriend!    I hope you have an amazing day and an amazing year!  This is a hop, so be sure to stop by the blogs of the other gals for some fun inspiration:

For my card, I had diecut the Stampendous sunflower a while back with my Cameo PicScan mat--that was an adventure, let me tell you.  I watercolored it with Zigs over a layer of Recollections watercolor crayons.  I hadn't realized those crayons had a shimmer that shines like cray-cray.  The 3D embossed background has such luscious texture that really makes me want to love and stroke the card and call it George.  Yum!   Btw, if you like the look of the Next Level folders (and why wouldn't you), you can get them at The Heart Desires.

The Details:  We R Memory Keepers Next Level embossing folder, Tim Holtz watercolor paper, VersaFine Vintage Sepia and Onyx Black, Altenew Birthday Greetings, Waltzing Mouse stitched scalloped rectangle die, Doodlebug enamel dots, Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens, PTI Hawaiian Shores (or possibly Aqua Mist) and kraft cardstock, Recollections 110lb white cardstock and watercolor crayons
