Hello lovely friends! I'm delighted and honored to be guest designing at the AAA Birthday challenge blog this month. The theme for this month is 'Water colours' and here is my card: I used the flora background stamp from simon says stamp. I heat embossed it using versamark and WOW white embossing powder. I used zig clean brush pens to watercolour the image. I wanted the sentiment to stand out on the busy and bright background. My first instinct was to place vellum underneath the sentiment. But the background did not mellow down enough with 110gsm vellum I used. So, I stamped the background image on cardstock, lightly watercoloured it and die cut a circle which I placed beneath my die cut sentiment from simon says stamp. I had so much fun creating this card. I would love to know what you think of it. Do join this fun challenge and remember- birthday cards only. You can find all the details on the blog here . Happy crafting! ~Ana
