Happy Birthday in Green and Gold



 

I made this card for the Colors Hues "Green and Gold," AAA Cards "Circles," Seize the Birthday "Anything Goes," Happy Little Stampers "Anything Goes Watercolor," and Die Cut Divas "Anything Goes," challenges.   For the background I ink smooshed on watercolor paper using Lindy's Magicals on a craft sheet, then misted the paper once it was covered and sprinkled a little more powder on and misted again.  One of the cool things about Magicals is that the shimmer is not always the same color as the pigment.   The cover die is Circle of Leaves by Simon Says Stamp.  I heat embossed a sentiment from an old Close to My Heart set, Just to Say, and popped it up with foam tape. 

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time, Hansi
