Happy Birthday

I have truly had the pieces for this card on my desk for ages..... used some die cut leaves - Kaisercraft Vines and flowers - Sizzix Wildflower Stems #1, and loosely watercoloured them.
In my stash I found this smooched background - then gold embossed the sentiment - Happy Little Stampers Fun Birthday Sentiment. .....  this was not the best as the watercolour paper and "old" embossing powder kind of spread and blurred - I added some white gel pen around the letters to hid the mess up.





I am playing along with two challenges -  
Thanks for visiting,  have a Wonderful Creative day,.....   cheers

  1. I like it! The white highlighting around the sentiment gives it the effect of letterpress, and your watercoloring looks really awesome! Thank you for joining the Seize the Birthday!

  3. Love it, Love it, Love it! I swear Miss Robyn, you make the best cards. I particularly love your background. There so many things I have not tried - too busy working on my rug.
