Happy Birthday

Hi crafters!  Here is a super bright and fun card when you next need a Birthday card quickly!  I started with a piece of white card and used several Distress Oxide inks one it in diagonal stripes.  I used Shaded Lilac, Spiced Marmalade, Worn Lipstick, Fossilised Amber, and Peacock Feathers.  I repeated the colours until I filled the card.  Next I used the Slimline Decorative Squared Stripes and cut into the card.  I backed it with a piece of white card that had a sticky adhesive sheet added to it.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz to fill in the remaining exposed adhesive and give the background a sparkly look.    Next I added a multi-layered frame using the Slimline Essential die set, cut out of white card.  I cut the Noble Happy Birthday sentiment out of white gloss card and added it with mounting foam across the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 5"  x  9 1/4"  in size.  All for now. Sue x

    Oh Sue this is lovely, it's so bright and fun, so happy and cheerful, who wouldn't upgrade a card like this to the front of the group. I bought a few white sheets of gloss white cardstock donkeys years ago to try the transfer with heat technique and guess what ? Yep, I never did try it so I still have my gloss white lol all I'd need now are the slimline dies which I'm hoping I'll need going forward.
    Sending much love to you both, and to everyone that pops in today, try and enjoy your day as best you can xxx

    Good Morning Sue and all.
    What a lovely card to start the weekend. I love the colours and I have never seen white mirror card so that is something new that I must look for. I think I have enough card to sink a ship but I am tempted.
    Thank you for being there for us on a daily basis.
    Hugs
    Marie P.

    KEEP SAFE

    Thank you for your greeting Yvonne

    Hi Sue. I love how the colours really pop on this card. Of course we could all go to town using all sorts of different colours and designs other than stripes.

    Hi Sue, yet another great vibrant card. I don't think I would be able to achieve such straight lines though. WakeyL

    Hi Sue, a brilliant fun card and I love the strong colours although like Wakey above me I don't know how you managed such straight lines :-) Your slimline dies are fast becoming the go-to dies for all our cards.
