Happy Birthday



Today I got to color this beautiful Tall Tulip H251 from Great Impressions. 
It was so fast and easy to do. 
I just love this design. 
After coloring the tulip, I  die cut my focal image and placed it on striped yellow paper. 
I added a die cut vine for interest. 
I could always use a birthday card so I used the G483 Tag sentiment.
