OMG my card turned out so much better than I could have ever dreamed. I have used Lawn Fawn's Pearlescent vellum which I love, love, love to die-cut out a Spring Flowers backdrop which I have loosely coloured up with my Copics to match the bright pinks and yellows in the inspirational photo. I have die cut outa Giant Happy Birthday from Guava card stock which I adhered to my Neenah White #110 base card first then laid my coloured vellum overlay on top. I love this vellum as well as being shiny it also doesn't seem to show the glue underneath. I then added a few daisy die-cuts from the Secret Garden Window die to the HB die-cut. I have added a shimmer pen to the paper daisies to match the pearlescent backdrop.
Copics used:
Yellow: Y13/15
Green: YG05/09
Pink-red: RV14, R46
Pink-red: RV14, R46
I have mentioned before about the trick of using an old mail bag with bubble wrap in it to run underneath your card stock with detailed dies. I wish I remembered my tricks when cutting, see the difference below but at least the wasted piece (sniff) could be my practice piece to see what the colours looked like on it before committing to colour the good frame.
And the photo-board that inspired my card:
