Happy Birthday

Good Sunday morning all!  I started with a piece of card from my background stash.  I used Sun Yellow, Burnt Orange and Lava Red Pixie Powders on this piece.  Next I cut the Birthday Big Bold Word die/stamp combo out of black card.  I added the black outline to a white backing piece.  Next I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I cut the Birthday die out of it and kept all the fall away pieces from it.  I paper pieced them back into the black outline giving the Birthday a bit of sparkly bling.  I stamped the Happy part of the sentiment on to a piece of leftover pixied card and cut it out with the tag in the die set.  I added it to the middle of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/4"  x  7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

    Good morning Sue.
    Why would I get up before seven on a Sunday morning if I didn't have the blog to look forward to?
    I wasn't too sure that I liked the big bold dies when You first showcased them but I've grown to really like them and to appreciate their versatility. Todays offering is absolutely beautiful.
    Thank you Sue.
