Happy Birthday

Hello, crafty peeps!

I am back with another card using the same pearlized watercoloring technique. I showcase how to use both negative and positive space to watercolor the image. Visit here to see the positive space way. This is the part of my DT post for Peek-a-boo Designs! 

I started with a ticket die panel and heat embossed the image with gold glitter embossing powder.

I decided to create a fun soft ombre blending colors BG using picked raspberry, fired brick, candied apple distress inks mixed with pearl shimmer water. I blended the color from the bottom up and faded out to white cardstock in between and highlighted the image with very soft light pink. See the shimmer clearly below in this pic:

On my white card base, I created a washi tape panel stripes (which is new in my stash) with satin red ribbon and added different border panel for more dimension and interest. Added the Birthday sentiment. And adhered the focal panel on it. In the end, added a red bow with a pearl.
