The theme is "Flourish" and what better stamp to use than one of the fab flourishes designed some years ago by Linda Luckin (now Linda Dore). I feel very lucky to have known Linda while she was still designing and producing stamps, you may have noticed how often her designs crop up in my work.
I stamped it with Versamark ink and embossed it with clear powder, then masked a strip of the card front and sponged with the separate colours from a Kaleidacolor Fresh Greens pad. After removing the masking, I used the complete pad to stamp the birthday greeting, using a stamp that was a cover mounted gift with a magazine last year.

Oh WOW! Love this! Beautiful colours and the I love how you've incorporated the flourish.
Thanks for your message on my blog re the Twofers challenge. Do I need to make two card to enter the challenge? It doesn't say so in the rules, but I assumed from the blog title that I'd need to make two cards on the theme. xx

Beautiful card, love the white embossing and your watercolour ombre look.
Not as good as you though Mrs. I love that umbre colouring and of course good old Linda's stamp, she is a very talented lady but then so are you. XOXO
Fab flourish Jane and a great ombre effect. Thanks for linking up at Fantasy Stampers. :)
Love that panel, such zesty bright colours, just what we need as it's so grey outside.
Sorry I'm so late visiting!
Thanks for sharing with us.
