To start, I wanted a unique looking background as my "canvas", so I took some watercolor paper and ran it through my Bigshot machine with the Petal Burst embossing folder, which is new from Stampin' Up! this year. After embossing it, I taped it down to a sturdy surface with some washi tape so that it wouldn't warp as I added water and ink. I squeezed some ink from three ink pads into the lid of the stamp pad so that I could use it to watercolor. I took my aqua painter and mixed (I used my E sized acrylic block as a pallet for mixing so I wouldn't contaminate the ink pads) together Elegant Eggplant and Rich Razzleberry. I took this mix and dabbed it in various places along my embossed paper. I did the same with my Tempting Turquoise until I was pleased with the variation.
While that dried, I cut out a number 3 and 1, using the Large Numbers framlits dies out of thick Whisper White cardstock and watercolored them both with the same colors. I also cut out a beautiful floral image from the Flourish Thinlits set out of vellum to add a delicate touch. I hear embossed the "happy" sentiment, from the Celebrate Today" stamp set, with white embossing powder and cut it to fit the bottoms portion of my card, and also added a banner cut at the end. I popped the numbers up with dimensionals, but you could always cut multiples of each number, and adhere them together to create dimension as well.
To finish off my card, I added a few clear sequins and some splatters from my Wink of Stella pen and that finished off my card!
