The designers at Our Daily Bread Designs are taking a look back at this month's new release! I chose the new Happy Birthday die
set to feature on my card. Using Peacock Feathers and Peeled Paint distress inks, I wet the watercolor cardstock then picked up the two colors from acrylic blocks and applied colors to the paper with a brush until I got a blend I liked. After it was dry, I tapped a wet brush over the BG to let water droplets create a "bleached" effect. I thought the sentiment would have more of a pop by shadowing a black layer behind it plus it adds dimension. I used a white gel pen to add stripes and dots to the balloons and the tiny stars are from ODBD Stars die set.
