To start this card I cut a green A2 size cardbase.  Next, I used the scalloped frame die from the Frames and Flags Die Set to cut a piece of smooth white cardstock on which I used Distress Oxide Inks Squeezed Lemonade and Kitsch Flamingo with the Bold Blooms Stencil to create a colorful background.  I then splattered the background with gold watercolor paint and set it aside to dry.

I stamped out the gorgeous image of a girl holding a bouquet of tulips from the Loads of Blooms Stamp Set.  I colored the image with Copic markers, and cut it out using the coordinating die set.

Next, I used the Circle Frames Die Set to cut a piece of vellum, and a banner die from the Frames and Flags Die Set to cut a piece of green cardstock for my sentiment.  I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiment, also from the Loads of Blooms Stamp Set, onto the banner.  

I assembled my card, adhering the floral background to the cardbase, and the vellum circle to the background.  I used foam tape to adhere and pop up the sentiment banner and the image for some dimension!

For finishing touches on this card I added accents with a white gel pen and a few sparkling sequins!  Now it's time to get your paws inky creating a project for the Color Challenge using your Newton's Nook Designs products.  Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge!  Hope to see you there!
