It was a wet and miserable weekend here in Dorset so I had time to play around with some textured backgrounds, I used an old "Happy Birthday" text Hero Arts stamp which I stamped and embossed in white. Next I blended with Raspberry and Spiced Marmalade distress ink to create the colour, I then added some embossing paste using the Simon Says Falling Snow stencil. Very pleased with how it turned out.
To finish I stamped and water coloured some Spring flowers from the Simon Says stamp set onto water colour paper and fussy cut them out. I layered up on the card with the die cut gold sentiment. A bright cheerful card for a very dull day!!
I shall add this card to the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge "Metallic" and the Flickr group challenge "Anything Goes"
Have a great week
Hugs
Sally

Marisela Delgado said: Gorgeous card like always, Sally. Sorry your weather was miserable. I live in San Antonio and we have been sunny and warm. Come on over and stamp with us! You'll get a tan in the process! 😀😀😀 We have been inching towards 100*F, though. And humid, which is horrible. I guess we're never happy, right? haha Have a great week! mariandmonsterd@yahoo.com
