Here's my Birthday design:


I made this card using Derwent Inktense Pencils on the fox.  They are watercolor pencils, if you have never used them, and as the name implies, the are intense, using very little ink to color a large space. The fox and die cut, sentiment, papers and glimmer stickers are all from Close To My Heart
