On wc card stock, I embossed the flowers in white and then watercolored the flowers with a some blue so they would have some shadows and depth, and then did the bg. Splattered with diluted inks of the same colors. Gold embossed the sentiment and used a gold foil strip as well as a blue strip for a border.

Oh, wow, is right, Maura! This is gorgeous, and it's a perfect inspiration using the sweet baby doll pajamas you chose! I love the design and your watercoloring, and I now wish I had added some splatters myself. It really adds a lot! I love the gold with the blue border on the left and am thrilled you found such a great inspiration piece! Stunning card, my friend, and I really LOVE it! Big hugs!
