Celebrate It's Your Birthday

Happy July! I know once we hit July we're heading toward Fall. I know it's a long way off but at least we're going in the right direction!

I was playing around with watercolor again for this card. I placed Tropical Teal, Simply Chartreuse and Aqua Mist inks on a piece of acetate and spritzed it with water. I transferred the ink onto a piece of watercolor paper until I got the effect I wanted. I love this color combo (thanks Heather Nichols!).

Celebrate is die-cut 2 times in white cardstock and once in gold foil paper, stacked and glued together. I stamped the sentiment in blank ink. The watercolor panel is on a Tropical Teal cardstock card base.

To make the card a little more festive looking, I added stars cut in Tropical Teal and Simply Chartreuse cardstock.
