This first card uses the intricate Deco Circles Die, the new WOW Aquatini Embossing Powder Trio, Gansai Tambi Starry Nights watercolor, and some vellum.

Then just add an embossed sentiment on vellum and a few Vegas Baby Sequins.
The next card is made with the Awesome and Wonderful Stamp Set, a rainbow of Catherine Pooler Inks, the Blowing Bubbles Border Die and the little dragonflies are from the Fresh Flowers Stamp Set. The colorful secondary panel is made by sponging the ink pad directly to the edge of the panel.
This next card is made with a portion cut from the Interlocked Die which was embossed with colors from the three different WOW Trios. The flowers were painted with the Starry Nights watercolor mixed with inks and the cart was stamped with Sand Castle Ink. The sentiment was embossed in Wink from the Flirty Fuschia Embossing Trio. All elements are from the Fresh Cut Flowers Stamp Set.
