and although it was nice... it didn't really grab me. So I pulled the flowers off and recycled them.
I added some Copic makers to the stamped Hibiscus to add some dimension. I used a similar design to my card from yesterday. Today's die is one from Britannia Dies and the birthday is a Winnie & Walters stamp. Added some gold and red Kindyglitz.
And what you might ask is Pink Lemonade? Well I've purchased the online class at StampNation called In The Mood. I can highly recommend it! It's all about getting inspired by Mood Boards. The first board is called Pink Lemonade and as the title suggests included some pretty pinks and a greeny blue colour.
I started by using some Chalk ink and a Couture Creations embossing folder to do a faux letterpress technique. I mounted this onto the pink card and made the flowers with the same card. I used a Tim Holtz Tattered flowers die, a Stampin' Up punch and a Martha Stewart punch to make the flowers and leaves. I inked up some white card with the aqua ink and used a Hero Arts sentiment. Really happy with the results.

both cards are so pretty Dawn - great idea to add dimension with copics - i'm going to give that a try.
Isn't it always fun to be able to rework designs that just don't hit the mark? Well I think your recreation is stunning. Bright, cheerful and vivacious! And your second card is oh-so-elegant with those paper blooms and embossed background. Lovely!
Well done in re-using the flowers you were not happy with Dawn - they look fabulous here, and the card is another stunner. Love that second one - it's colours are gorgeous and the background texture/colour combination is beautiful.
Blessings
