Birthday 38 . . .

 Yet another feminine spring themed birthday card and here it is . . . 

 




I wish to enter these challenges . . . 
Beautiful Blossoms Challenge #15 Anything Floral Goes optional Moodboard (6/6)


Creative Fingers Challenge #274 Always Anything Goes (1/3)
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge  Anything Goes (4/5) 
Word Art Wednesday Challenge #641 Anything Goes (5/5)


I used a Chocolate Baroque stamp with Antique Linen Distress ink.  Clarity Crafts sentiment stamp with a green Versafine Clair ink pad, Clarity Crafts Tina Cox set 1 stencil for the background along with Abandoned Coral Distress ink.  I embellished with Seam Binding ribbon, Craftwork Cards die cut flowers and Candi, Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, sequins and a final touch of Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops. 


I decided to try out my no line stamping again.  This time I used my Faber-Castell Polychromo pencils to colour the image.  Once I was happy with the Polychromos I added a watercolour wash to the background. 

For once I can honestly say that I am totally over the moon with the end result.   Back soon x
