Happy September! Time for a new challenge at The Flower Challenge and this month it is …
My card this month features the Floral Mix Background stamp from Simon Says Stamp. I love this pretty stamp and the mix of flowers.

I heat stamped the background in embossing ink and heat embossed it with WOW! Golden Vintage Lace which is a pretty gold with lots of sparkles. I then watercolored the flowers with my Karin Brush pens.

I love a deep blue background and watercolored the background to help make the sparkle in my embossing pop.

I finished my card with some white heat embossing for the sentiment using the Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words and attached it to my background.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a chance to play along with us this month and adding some sparkle to your card. P.S. I’m also adding my card to the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge!


Such a dazzling card, Ericka!
Thank you so much Donna!
Erika, your card is absolutely stunning! One of my favorite SSS background stamps and your watercoloring with the Karin markers definitely makes it come alive!
Stef thank you so much! I agree I love the variety of flowers in the stamp!
Beautiful water colouring and such fab colours

I can always pick out your cards, Ericka. They are so bright and beautiful, sparkle or not.
