Just Dreamin' Stamps: Charming Day Birthday

Charming Day Birthday

I am so pleased with how this card turned out, it is absolutely beautiful!

The idea for the card was inspired by a card Patty Bennett made using one of her water-coloring techniques.

The card starts with a Basic White cardstock card base, followed by a Strawberry Slush cardstock panel.

The top panel is Two-Tone Basic Black that has been embossed using the Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder. After this panel was embossed, I used a sanding block to lightly sand some of the raised embossed areas.

The flowers are from the Charming Day dies and have been cut out using the Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. Once cut out, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Strawberry Slush, Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green and Garden Green ink were used along with a Small Blending Brush to color the flowers. Once colored the flowers were lightly spritzed with water, to help the colors blend together, and then allowed to dry.

After the flowers had dried, Wink of Stella Glitter Brush was applied to only the flowers, not the leaves.

The flowers and leaves were adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Black Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Greetings for All Mix and Match Ephemera Pack.

Strawberry Slush gems from the Strawberry Slush and Pretty in Pink Gems were added randomly to the card front.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today!
