Sieze the Birthday #251 Ashwini-Many of Something


                                                         

It is November I can't believe that we are getting close to the end of the year and November is the last month that Seize the Birthday Challenge posts.  We take the month of December off to refresh! 
This month Ashwini is the host and she has chosen the topping, Many of Something. You don't want to miss this one. Get out your crafty supplies and play along with us. 

                                                         Here is my inspiration for you. 

    My background has many of these things. Not sure what they are. Balloons or Flowers, You decide. 
I used Simon Says background stamp ( Flora) and die cut ( Happy Birthday) as you see in the picture. 
The technique that I did on the background is heat embossing and then some watercolor over the top. It was a day when I made many backgrounds that I could use later. This one came in very handy. The sentiment is one that you will see many times on my cards as it is easy and I love it. Some gold foil strips on the side and bling from my stash complete this card. 

And if you are not into toppings, just make sure that it is a Birthday card.

  4. This is so stinkin' pretty. You have melded red and green perfectly without getting mud. How did you do that. I love that emboss resist with the watercolor, I don't do that very often. Great design here! Oh, and I think those are flower petals......I think.
