Watercolor Birthday Card

I made this card for my good friend Marla's 50th birthday.  I love how it turned out!
 
I started out by misting watercolor paper with water.  Then, using an acrylic block, I dropped several drops of each color reinker on the block and misted the ink with water until it started to run together.  I quickly turned the block over and pressed onto the moist watercolor paper.  Dry the paper with a heat gun before stamping the main image.
 
Colors: Cotton Candy, Gypsy, Pear, Sky
Stamps: Happy Birthday, Quick Card - Butterfly, Love Life
Sparkles: Blue/Green and Pink/Purple assortments
