The toppings option at Seize the Birthday is to use your favorite color but my card doesn't amplify my favorite so I'm joining in the Anything Goes option.
I made this card a while ago for my dear SIL's birthday but never posted it and I thought it was a pretty one to share. I used Altenew's House Plants, Boho Vases and Through the Window dies along with their Masonry Wall 3D embossing folder to create this little scene.
I started by die cutting the window in a panel of white, then embossing it. For the window scene, I just die some simple ink blending to create the sky and ground, adhered it behind the panel then added the dark gray window frame. I used the same dark gray cardstock to create the big vase and backed the openings with a light blue scrap.
The leaves were all die cut from white then ink blended with a trio of greens. The pot was also ink blended with a light gray. The wood shelf was cut from light brown cardstock, then I added shading with ink. With everything added to the card, I finished things off with matte gold flower centers and a foiled sentiment. This was a fun card to make - these dies are fabulous!
Thanks for taking time to stop by! I'll be back at the end of the week with a new DT card for Color Hues. In the meantime, take care!

You have created a gorgeous scene, Stef. The wood shelf shading is just fabulous as are the background and foliage. I totally agree with Karen, I love everything about this and I am sure your SIL did too.
