Bright Daisies Birthday Duo - Simon Says Stamp

Good morning! Still filling up my birthday stash, but this time I switched over to some bold and happy floral cards! I love this newer floral background from Simon Says Stamp - it was so much fun to watercolor! And then splitting the design so I could create two cards? Even better!


I started off by stamping the new Gerbera Daisy background on watercolor paper with Nocturne ink, then heat embossing with clear embossing powder. This step isn't necessary with this ink, since it is safe to watercolor, but I love the added shine it gave, and how it creates little pockets to hold the watercolors! Next, I pulled out my Altenew watercolor palette, and colored the blooms in bright pink, yellow, and orange tones. Once it dried, I trimmed the panel in half to mount on a white cardbase. Sentiment is Bouncy Happy Birthday, die cut from black cardstock for the shadow layer, and white glitter cardstock for the main layer - a subtle bit of sparkle and texture! I added secondary sentiments from Tiny Words Birthday, then finished off with a few bold Black Dazzling Gems. Here are more photos of the finished set:
