Sparkle on your Birthday!

I have another card featuring some new stamps to share today...this set is called 'Mimi Bubble Blooms - Annie' by Woodware. I started by smooshing some Distress Inks (Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers & Cracked Pistachio) on to a piece of watercolour paper. I then stamped the flowers over the top using Versamark Ink, then heat embossed them with 'Vintage Peacock' embossing glitter from WOW. I added the sentiment from the stamp set, distressed the edges and added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen.

I 'coloured' the 'bubbles' on the flowers using a clear Sakura Stardust pen...th whole card is really sparkly in real life...you can see it a little better in this photo:
