I took a piece of watercolor paper and smooched it over some different colors of distress ink. After that dried I used some embossing paste and a TH stencil. The Happy Birthday is from Simon Says Stamp and I cut this die about 4 times and stacked them for dimension. The flower.....one of those little wooden pieces that I've had in my stash forever and a day that I painted with acrylic white and then added the pink enamel dot. Clean and simple and fun to do.
As I said I'll enter this in the challenge at AAA Cards but will also enter it in the Shopping Our Stash challenge (birthday) who is celebrating their 3rd birthday this week.
Thanks for stopping by...........

Creative and unique! What a fun technique this looks to be :)
Love that you have switched up the colours! The embossing paste has worked so well giving subtle texture to your card - going to have to get some myself. Thanks for playing at AAA Cards.
This has such a wonderful feel to it. Love that beautiful inky strip and the embossing paste over the stencil is such a neat look!
Wonderful card!
Love the look of this. Makes me want to get out my embossing pastes :-) With a different embellishment, this would be a great guy card too (love the versatility of your design).
Just love your CAS style, Lynn! This is gorgeous! I really like how you did the stencilling too!
Fabulous Lynn, love the use of the paste with the mask and lovely use of colours.

Love It Lynn. I especially like the font for the sentiment and you did a fantastic job with your "artwork" on the card. Have a fun day.
So nicely done, Lynn, You have inspired me to get out my embossing paste. It's been a while...
Love, love, love this card Lynn! I just got some embossing paste and can't wait to try it out as soon as I have some more time! lol I also want to get some more stencils to play with. I love the colors in your water color and of course I love that HB die!! Hugs, Brenda
Fabulous take on the CASE card, Lynn! I love the Happy Birthday and how you added dimension to it by stacking layers. Great job with the paste, too!
Sooooo pretty, Lynn! Love that pretty sprayed and stenciled strip! A wonderful way to say happy birthday!
That inking...wow!! Love the paste over top too - I have GOT to try that!
Love the embossing paste and the look you created with the watercolor background behind it. So creative!! Thanks for joining us at AAA Cards.
holy wow, missus! all your cards are gorgeous, but this MIGHT just be an all-time fave! absolutely ♥AMAZING♥ take on the inspiration card, but with sooooo much of your own style, as well. plus the palette and the pink flower on top of the beautifully distressed blue-green inky background give this a "monet" sort of feeling... which is not too shabby by any means!!!!! wow, wow, WOW! ♥
Beautiful card Lynn, I love the design.

Not only am I in love with those embossing paste dots but love the die cut words too.
LOVE this card- love the dots you created- and how did you stick 3-4 layers of this word together? How awesome- loving the flower too.
Love this Clean and Simple card with it's lovely colors and that pop of white sentiment. Shop my stash....that's what I need to do!!!
Really like this card Lynn. Sorry for not stopping by much lately. Been busy and a bad week this week.

I absolutely LOVE this one with that gorgeous colorful panel and the die cut sentiment! You knocked this one right out of the park!!!!
It's a bit of fresh air! Cool colors and a feeling of softness. I was wondering how you got that die cut to look like that (4 layers is a lot of work). The distressed strip is cool too! I love wet embossing, your is wonderful. You've CASED this card from a "different" view and I really appreciate that! Just wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing it with us at AAA Cards, we hope you come back to play and display your skills often. Cheers, Victoria Lavender
Lynn, your card is INDEED very fresh and fun! Perfect birthday card. Thank you for playing at AAA Cards!
Such a pretty card, I love how he colours pop on the kraft background! Thanks for playing along with us at Shopping Our Stash!!
Awesome CAS Lynn! I love the paste dimension and kraft combo :)
I love how you used the paste, Lynn...such wonderful texture and I love the diecut sentiment!!!
This is beautifully put together. Love the textured background piece.
oh! So cute! You layered that skinny sentiment. You must have steady hand and great eye-hand coordination! Love this card...may need to put that die on my wish list!!!!
LOVE the stenciling over the smooshed paint background! And the pop of pink is a perfect accent.
Were your hands a sticky mess after gluing those layers of sentiments? Mine usually are. ;/
Thanks for joining us at Shopping Our Stash this week!
Your cards are just amazing Lynn! Love this one too!!!

Love the stenciled border and that great HB die cut too! Warm and pretty!
Your inky watercolor piece is amazing! Such a pretty card and I can't imagine how you stacked those die cuts so neatly!
