PP236 - Happy Birthday with Florals

I'm sure many of you know this challenge site, but for me it's a new one with The Paper Players PP236 of Florals which gave me a chance to play with a new stamp set I got: The Big, the Bold and Extras.

Here is my card:

Lots of fun stuff on this card by starting with texture paste and Flower Pattern stencil by Simon Says Stamps. Before the paste was dried, I added some Holographic embossing powder to add some glitter. Later, I cut out the panels by using my Horizontal Stitched Strips dies.

Since I wanted to incorporate Kathy's 30 day coloring challenge over at The Daily Marker, I colored these flowers using distress inks and watercolor paper. After coloring my paper, I stamped the flowers using white embossing powder and fussy cut each one. For the leaves, I colored those with my copic markers. I've been participating via instagram (lizstamps_15) with coloring if you would like to check it out.

This adorable script sentiment is from the stamp set called: Hand lettered thanks which is surrounded by Stitched circle dies. Final touch was to add just a few sequins by Pretty Pink Posh.
