It's time again for the Papertrey ink monthly blog hop. We are supposed to make a card using the inspiration from the photo. Normally not long after looking at the photo I can picture in my mind what sort of card I wanted to do. This time nada, zip...nothing! So I sought out more inspiration.
I found the wonderful card above on Betsy's blog. You can check out more details on her blog
here.
I loved how the flowers tucked into the bold sentiment. I also loved the artsy background.
I pulled the melon berry and berry sorbet colors from the photo and made my watercolored background. I also took some fine linen ink and watered down white acrylic paint to produce splatters over my watercolored background. The flowers were stamped in the same colors. I added a hint of navy as the centers of the flowers too. The text block birthday die was cut with fun foam. I accidentally used my white Wink of Stella glitter marker (instead of the clear) on the flowers. However, I wasn't about to start over. Luckily...The white maker gave the flowers a white washed look which actually worked well with my watercolored background. A few iridescent sequins finishes the card.
Supplies listed and linked below:
Thanks for stopping by! Please come back again!

So pretty! Don't you love Bitty Bouquets? They tuck in well to lots of things and I find them very versatile.
This is beautiful, Shelly!
