Belated Birthday Wishes

Hi crafters!  Today's card uses the Stripes 'n Dots paper pad for it's base.  I cut the pink, ivory and aqua striped papers and glued them to piece of white card.  I cut thin strips of the pink and aqua dotty paper and used them as borders across the join lines.  Using the Birthday Accessories set, I cut the candles, party hat, presents and a couple balloons out of the dotty aqua from the paper pad.  I cut six of the Scalloped Squares in the smallest size and attached them with foam in a diamond orientation to the top and bottom sections of the card.  I attached the aqua pieces to the top section, with the balloons going in the centre.  On the lower section, I cut all the items out of the pink dotty papers and attached them to the lower section.  I cut the Belated Birthday Wishes in black and glued it to the centre of the card and added the balloons around it.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

  3. Hi Sue.
    What a pretty card it looks so delicate with its pastel colours, to me it feels like a 'young' persons card but I know that with a change of colour it could be for any age or gender I just love everything about this inspiration with your latest paper pad and dies.
    Hope you're having a wonderful time with lots of fun and laughter Sue.
    Stay well and keep safe everyone xxx
