Wildflower Meadow colorful card

Here is my first blog post!  :) So excited to share this one with you. 

Thanks to Pinterest (which is super addicting) I cased this card and used it for a swap at a recent weekend long stamping retreat I attended.  I stamped the Stampin' Up Wildflower Meadow background stamp and embossed it in white.  Then I sponged gumball green, daffodil delight, primrose petals, and coastal cabana over the embossing.  I let it dry just a bit, then wiped the front of the card down with a Kleenex to remove any leftover ink from the embossing.  Then stamped happy birthday in crisp cantaloupe, punched with the modern label punch, added two rhinestones and some bakers twine.  Then mounted it on whisper white paper, and a crisp cantaloupe card base. 

I love how the sponged colors meet and make it look as if 6 colors were sponged instead of just 4.  I made 14 of these babies and just loved how they turned out.
