I started out by blending a range of Distress inks from yellow tones through to red on a piece of watercolour card. I can't resist a little flicking and spritzing of water with perfect pearls! Followed by some heat embossing of one of the blooms from 'Especially For You' the sentiment is also heat embossed and from the Fun Birthday Sentiments set. A strip of design paper and some gems to my flower centres finishes my card.

The colorful panel contrasts beautifully with the black card base. Warm colors look great. I also like delicate spots after removing some of the ink with water. Shiny crystals in the centers of flowers add sparkle card.
