Wishing You a Wonderful Birthday


Tried my hand at Watercolours on Vellum for the CAS Watercolour March challenge.
I stamped my image in grey and clear embossed it and used watercolour pencils to colour the image on the back.  Die cut a double stitched circle on my front panel and stamped on my sentiment.  To add some interest I used a sharp blade to cut the points on some of the leaves so I could lift them through the circle to extend onto the front and used some thin foam tape to hold them up off the card.  I am also playing along at The Flower Challenge #30 - Anything Goes and Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge for March - Special Day.  Thanks for visiting I really appreciate it, happy stamping.
