It is my blogging buddy Darnell's birthday today! (Shhhhhh - don't say how old🙊🙊)Clever Darnell is part of the wonderful DT at CAS Watercolour and they are celebrating her birthday with the challenge of a 'Bouquet of Flowers'.
I hope Mr Postman delivered my card to Darnell in time for today but just in case it hasn't arrived across the pond yet I have made one to share with her via the Challenge as well.
I have recently acquired this stamp and matching die set. I love it!
I stamped and heat embossed in gold and used my new watercolour paints before die cutting.
The background in the circle is a simple colour wash and some gold spatters and a heat embossed sentiment.
Happy Birthday Darnell! xx

Beautiful. The colours are superb. Hugs Mrs A.
How strange, before I came to my reading list, I just had the same thought, I wonder if my card to Darnell has arrived in time.
Beautiful embossing and a really lovely image and design.

Gorgeous birthday card for Dolly, Viv! I LOVE this beautiful image and the colours you've used. So beautiful and elegant with the touches of gold. xx
Thank you so much, Viv! Now I have TWO stunning works of art of yours! Yes, your beautiful card arrived in time and I opened it yesterday! What an awesome way to start my seventh decade with fabulous cards from friends in my mailbox and such a lovely tribute and cyber cards coming to me via the CASWC! I love this design layout with gorgeous background and sediment inside the circle and pretty flowers bordering half the circle on the outside! And I love the gold with the blushing pink on this one! Am I the luckiest old lady in Blogland or WHAT??!! Mwah! Hugs, Darnell

A beautiful card for CAS Watercolour and Darnell' birthday Viv, and the gold embossing is so pretty and love the pink and yellow flowers turning to orange in some places on the which frame the aperture beautifully which looks great with the soft pink and splatters. x

STUNNING card Viv!! Adore your soft colors with the gold embossing and your design layout is FABULOUS! Lovely, lovely card!! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at CAS Watercolour!! :0)
Stunning card! I love the gold and pink!Thanks for joining us at CAS Watercolour:)
Gorgeously subtle colouring and lovely design. I'm sure I'm waiting for those stamps, though I thought they were gingko biloba leaves...oh dear...maybe not. The pinks and gold look gorgeous together.
