Glittered Birthday Frame Card
Hi bloggers! Here is a fun idea to use with any of your themed frame dies to add some colour and some sparkle to them. I hope you like it!
The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x
7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue. A fun, colourful way of showing how pretty this framework is. As it's one I own, I'm looking forward to watching your tutorial then I can hopefully move onto the one that I've had cut and sitting on my table since the end of March ! Have a lovely craftylicious day xxx
Good Morning Sue. Beautiful glittered sample today Sue. Would be great for someone's special birthday. Can't watch the video just yet but will do so asap. Just waiting for our flight to sunny Turkey. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Morning Sue, love this card, and all the glitter, who doesn't like a glittery birthday card? Off to watch the video, even though I don't have this particular die, I am sure the tips and techniques can be used with others. Have a great day everyone. Bx
Good morning Sue What a fun and sparkly card! I love the embossing folder and die you've used. Great video full of useful tips thank you! Hugs x Heather T

Morning Sue This is such a fun card. It would suit male or female, young or old x The video is on my to do list. A long list but that has to go straight to the top of the list pushing other tasks aside x The good weather is still with us in Croydon. Blue skies and a line full of washing will be keeping me company today x I hope the sun is shining where you are. Sending lots of love to all specially missing friends x Crafty hugs PP Yvonne x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a beautiful card for someone very special with all that glitter on there, everyone love glitter don't they. I will watch the video later, I do get a reminder when you release a new video which is very useful.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Love this card, so colourful and blingy and a perfect showcase for any of your themed frame cards - and I really like the hand-drawn wiggly line framing the whole design - adds a lovely touch of informality...
A very pretty card sue makes you feel happy just looking at it sparkles too just up my street I’m 80 on June 1st I hope I get some sparkles Thank you sue love always June Horrocks xxxx
Morning Sue, I wish that I'd had this die when making my step daughter's birthday card. She is 40 today and loves bling and sparkle. It would look good just paper pieced or coloured in 'team colours'too. I'll watch the video after lunch when I can be sure of peace an quiet. Hugs xx Pauline
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fantastic card Sue x the glittered elements look like a yummy sugar coating x love the embossing folder too x will watch the video later once I've put the washing out x thankyou Sue x Take care everyone x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Hi Sue, a lovely fun card. Suitable for anyones birthday. I love the glitter. Thanks for your video which I will have to catch up with next week as we are away again enjoying the great weather.
Hi Sue, I like the Birthday Frame die and there is plenty of snipability in it. I think the card looks better in the video than in the still pictures as they make it look a bit heavy. I'm sure that IRL it is fabulous.
Hi Sue, Thanks for sharing this lovely and cheerful b-day card.Enjoyed the video as always. Hugs from Toronto to you all and special hugs to all missing friends. Still a newbie to Craft / not longer the newest, or the only across the pond Wilsonette Carmen-Dorothy
Hi Sue, A lovely fun card, it's a great one for children, Will be saving your videos up as not enough wifi coverage here in deepest Cornwall, Best wishes from sunny Cornwall, Karen M
This is one of the complete card front dies that I don't have. I have the birthday shadow box set so thought I'd skip this one but I do love how you glittered everything. The glittered gifts remind me of gum drops. Have a wonderful Tuesday to all, Stephanie K SC/USA
Hello Sue and all Bit late today but I left a post yesterday and it has disappeared or didn't load ? Love this card and all of the frames, I have a few and they are go tos, but the bling on this is fabulous. Loved the video, I had visions of double sided sticky sheets and different colour glitters - duh ! Now have 3 to make this week for my grand daughter, 21st for a friends niece and one to keep in stock for that forgotten or urgent birthday. So glad the weather was good for the bank holiday weekend, PP I lived in Croydon until I was 10 and the family moved here to Australia, unfortunately haven't been back but who knows - maybe at the right time for an Ally Pally. Hugs to all Muriel x
Good morning all. A beautiful card for sure. Special thanks for the video which I loved. Not a card I would attempt to make myself as the fussy cutting is more than my eyes could see and I do know my limitations. I never cease to wonder where you get all your inspiration from Sue but I'm so glad that you share it with us. Marie P.
A gorgeous fun and sparkling card.
