Happy Birthday, Bonnie!

Hello there.  It's another birthday celebration over at CAS Watercolour card challenge


and this time it's the fabulous Bonnie's birthday today.  I finally met her in person in May at the ESCR retreat.  In fact, I was lucky enough to craft right beside her!  She is kind and sweet and so much fun.  Love her North Carolina accent, too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BONNIE!!


Not sure if she received her card yet, but here is her bouquet of flowers birthday card.


This was really simple.  The Floral Bouquet was white heat embossed on a stitched rectangle die cut from mixed media paper.  It was watercolored with Tombow brush markers and a waterbrush.


The sentiment was white heat embossed on a scrap of black cardstock, then die cut out with a Sentiment Label die.  Purple splatters and clear shimmer on the flowers finished off the card.

I've had this stamp for quite a while now, so I was pleased to finally use it.  Thank you for stopping by.
