I scribbled several colors of Altenew Watercolor Brush Markers & spritzed with water. The flowers were too orangey, so I gold embossed the birthday sentiment from HA Find Joy on a vellum strip. Never tire of Gansai Tambi gold watercolor splatters & gold Stickles. You can see the shine in my IG post. 
I used gold metallic cardstock for a narrow mat & covered the card front with orange cardstock from my stash that was the right shade. I'm entering Stay Crafty with Hero via IG, Inkspirational, Die Cut Divas & Word Art Wednesday.
Several years ago a friend sent me some PFS diecuts. Decided it was time to make a card with the 2 Merry Days diecuts. 
I embossed the green one, without the little images, using Hero Arts Sparkle powder. Then I attached it over the light pink tree which still had the images in place. The background is a PTI Classic Kraft panel debossed with an old TH snowflakes folder.
The sentiment from PFS Classic Holiday Words was covered with Nuvo Glaze. You can see the sparkle & shine in my IG post. Luckily, the PFS December challenge is still open. I'm also entering Christmas Kickstart.
