Using the challenge colors today...old olive, daffodil delight, and calypso coral I made a birthday card for my sister-in-law. This card measures 4x8, and fits in a business envelope. The first thing I did was computer generate the sentiment using my MDS program. Using the pearalized paper stamped the flower image with the daffodil three times. Then I took yellow acrylic paint, and the coral reinker and painted the flowers. Because the pearlized paper gives you a longer drying time with the paint I put clear embossing powder over it when finished painting. Heat set. Cut out the flowers and arranged them. Painted the leaves using old olive reinker. Added dots with my paint brush handle with the acrylic paint. tfl

How lovely, Linda. Those little glossy blossoms are just perfect. The yellow dots are the perfect addition to add interest to the design. Love the sentiment too!
