Flower Power Birthday

I've not had much crafting time lately as we're in the middle of a flat renovation, but I made some time this afternoon to make this CAS card for a friend's birthday next week.

To make this card I used:
     5.5" x 4.25" white linen card blank
     Uniko 'Flower Power #10' flower and leaf stamps
     Uniko 'Flower Power #2' sentiment stamp
     Uniko 'Flower Power #1- #6' leaf die
     My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stiched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
     Versafine Imperial Purple and Olympia Green ink
     Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
     Copics - V12, Y02, Y08 & YG03
     Wink of Stella
     Snippets of white matt card and white linen card

I stamped the stem and leaves onto a snippet of white matt card using green ink and the flower with purple ink before embossing them with clear embossing powder.  I used the die to cut the leaves and fussy cut the flower before colouring them with Copics.  I die cut a snippet of white linen card with the rectangle die before placing it into my MISTI.  I put the flower and leaves onto the panel so I could position the sentiment stamp.  I removed the flower and stamped the sentiment with green ink before embossing it with clear embossing powder.  The panel was attached to the front of the card blank.  The leaf was attached to the left side of the panel and the flower was attached with a foam pad.  To finish I gave the flower and leaves a Wink of Stella.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Addicted to Stamps & More - Make Your Mark (I have used Copics)
     Krafty Chicks Challenge - CAS
     Seize the Birthday - CAS with Dies
     Snippets Playground - Challenge 526
     Uniko - 14th Birthday Card Linky Party
