I managed to have a play with some more new Hero Arts goodies & made this card using Hero Arts For You Flowers colour layering set.
The background has been stenciled with SSS Zig Zag stencil & Altenew Sea Glass ink. Unfortunately it doesn't show up well in the photo & I simply couldn't get a better shot but IRL it is darker. The flowers & leaves were stamped with a combination of different brand inks using the MISTI. Most of the leaves & small flowers were then cut on the Silhouette using their Pixscan technology & the rest fussy cut. I used some Liquid pearls as the centres on the aqua flowers & Wink of Stella in the white centres of the pink flowers. The PTI Birthday word was sent to me by a sweet friend as I have long admired this particular die but as yet don't have it in my stash. I used a liberal coating of Wink of Stella on the birthday word before adhering (albeit a little crooked lol) & finishing with a SSS sentiment word. As usual it was impossible to get a good shot of that gorgeous sheen of the WoS.
I am entering this into the following challenges -SSS Wednesday Challenge - Make it Girlie
I'm going with clean & layered with my inspiration being the gorgeous floral.

Love those flowers and the colors you've chosen for them. That 'birthday' die is fabulous! It's not in my stash (yet) either....might have to correct that, lol! Beautiful card, Rose. Just love this.
