Hello Crafty Friends,
It's the 1st of August and time for a new fun challenge at AAA Birthday,
and the theme of the month is
Anything Birthday Goes
and here's my take
Ohh, this theme was a bit tricky. I had a hundred ideas, but didn't know which one to go with. In the end I thought why not go with something I love, I love peonies and I love clean and simple cards, CAS cards, and all of a sudden it was easy. I stamped and heat embossed this beautiful peony on a card panel. To colour the flower I have used Lunar Paste that I diluted with water to create a shiny watercolour. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment, and mounted the panel on a piece of black cardstock before adhering it to the card front. The shine on the flower looks really pretty in real life.
