2) Simon Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes

And below is the card I made to attend these challenges:

I dry embossed the white cardstock with the embossing folder and an oval embossing diffuser to make a blank oval shape in the center. Then, I lightly applied gold Gelato on the embossed area to make it gold & distress look. I heat embossed the flowers (from Peony Scrolls set) with gold embossing powder and watercolor the flowers. After the watercolor dry, I cut out the flowers and attached them on the oval space with foam tapes. I also gold embossed "Happy Birthday" (from Persian Motifs set) on top of the oval space. Finish the card by attaching some gold pearls. Below is another look of the card:
