Happy Wishes with Climbing Orchid and Brusho Crystal Color Birthday Card

I had a very special Birthday in my family this week my Mum turned 60.  I had so much fun playing with so many of the new products from the Stampin' Up! 2018 Sale-A-Bration and Occasions catalogues. I used 2 of the FREE $180 Sale-A-Bration products - Happy Wishes stamp set and Celebrate You Thinlts which pair perfectly to create phrases in Silver Embossing and Gold Glimmer Paper.  I used the Brusho Crystal Colour to create the background wash.



In addition to the new products used I also used the Climbing Orchid and Orchid Builder Framelits, Large Letter Framelits and Number For Years and Happy Birthday Gorgeous Stamp Set and Champagne Foil Sheets.

The Orchid is stamped in Rose Red ink on Watercolor Paper and I used the Aqua Painter to colour it with Rose Red and Flirty Flamingo inks



The Ink and Paper Colours used are Dapper Denim, Rose Red and Flirty Flamingo.

I created the Background in two layers on Watercolour paper using Brusho Crystal Color in Prussian Blue. The first layer I layed down clean water on the paper and sprinkled the powder on the paper and used my Aqua Painter to dissolve the powder into an even coverage and let that dry. For the second layer I sprinkled the powder on the dried paper the spritzed it with clean water to create darker blooms of colour. I added more powder and water till I got the effect I wanted. When this was dry I adhered to with a generous amount of wet glue and placed a heavy book over it so it dried as flat as possible.
