Put Another Candle On Your Birthday Cake

Hello bloggers!  I love this die, it makes such a quick birthday card!  I started with a piece of powder pink card and used the Zigzag Squares embossing folder on it for texture.  I cut the Another Candle All in One out of both white and black card.  I used the black die cut as a shadow behind the white one.  I cut the die again out of Old Rose card.  I only used the fall away pieces for the roses and the letters to fill in the "put another" part of the sentiment.  I put Cosmic Shimmer dries clear glue on all of the candle flames and sprinkled them with Iced Snow.  I used the Magnolia Corner and the extra flower dies to create two small flowers out of Old Rose card.  I cut the Magnolia Corner out of white and nipped it apart for accents aroumd the flowers.  The card was completed with white, black and powder pink mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now. Sue x

  2. Hi again Sue. Why did I think I wouldn't use this all in one birthday die? I must have had 'a weird moment' it's beautiful. I've also missed yet another folder!! What on earth is going on, I can't blame lockdown cuz this die was pre-hibernation - oh well guess I'll sneakily add this to 'my keepers' list, hmmmm that's a bit naughty but you don't mind taking a small amount of blame do you Sue. If I can make anything as gorgeous as this inspiration it will be really worth a tiny amount of deception.
    In the meantime please stay safe no matter what the bosses say.

    STAY SAFE KEEP STRONG KEEP CARING AND CRAFTING 💖.xxx

    Good Morning Sue.
    Not really a good morning up to now as I just spent well over an hour looking for you on my
    PC.
    Eventually I got one from 10 DAYS AGO and plodded my way through 'newer posts' and here I am.
    A beautiful card Sue and worth fighting my PC for. I just love everything about it.
    Thank you.
    Marie P.

  30. Hi Sue

    Love this pretty card. Great for batch making too or if you need one in a hurry. Like the embossing folder. I have to say I cannot stop playing with my new quilted pillow embossing folder that arrived this week. Still not bought the opal polishes, but have been using my other gilding polishes, which I have had to give some TLC as they were a bit crusty. Moral for me is keep using them more often. Anyway the reason for my rambling is I had not thought I wanted this embossing folder, but seeing it on today’s card I’m having a rethink!

    Love Helen xxx

    A lovely card with lots of textures. This Another Candle All in One die set is one of my favorites, especially when I am rushed. It says it all. And one can use it as it cuts or decorate it with added elements. A lovely look with little need to think about a design. Thanks for sharing.
