Birthday Wishes

Hi bloggers!  Today's card was started by embossing a piece of white card with the Bubble Burst Embossing folder.  Once embossed, I used Aqua and Wisteria Matt Chalk Polish over the top of the embossed card.  I cut the embossed piece into four strips and added mounting foam to the backs and attached them to another piece of white card.  I cut the Cut Corner Rectangle dies in both white and wisteria card to make a multi-layered frame.  I added it to the card with mounting foam.  I cut the Wishes die out of wisteria card and added it to a white shadow backing, then glued it to the centre of the frame.  I stamped the word birthday (from the Wishes De/stamp combo set) and added it above the wishes inside the frame.  I used three small balloons from the Birthday Shadowbox die set and cut them in aqua, wisteria and lilac card.  I wrapped the tails around the end of the wishes die and added them t the frame with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

  2. Hi Sue
    Happy Wednesday everyone x
    Oh I love this. That Embossing Folder has passed me by and I’m not sure how because it’s amazing. It really pops with those colours. This is definitely a ‘suitable for all’ card x

    Good Morning Sue
    Another beautiful card to start the day.
    I just love the card you have made from beginning to end. I'm sure I have an embossing folder like the one you have used and it's high time I sorted the drawer out.
    The colours you have used are lovely.
    Thank you Sue.
