ok, let's get onto my card!
I used the beautiful Stitched Poinsettia dies from Lawn Fawn!

so pretty!

I did some watercoloring on a sheet of cardstock with Distress Inks in Abandoned Coral, Picked Raspberry, Saltwater Taffy and Dried Marigold. once it was dry, I used the dies to die cut them out and then I splattered lots of white acrylic ink on top!

I layered the petals with and then popped up the top layer with foam tape. for the cardbase, I used a pinky-beige color cardstock!

I heat embossed the sentiment on baby pink cardstock in white from Snowy Backdrops! then I fussy cut out around it.
I finished off the card with some opaque white sequins.

enjoy!
