Put Another Candle On Your Birthday Cake
Hi bloggers! I started with a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet. I cut all the small candles in black and added yellow flames to the tops. I cut a square of Lava Red pixied card for the top of the card. I added a multi-layered frame using a wider white base and a thin black frame on top. I added it with mounting foam to the pixied square. I cut the Put Another Candle sentiment from the Birthday Candles set in the centre. I peeled the backing off the white card and seated the sentiment piece in the upper centre of the card. I attached all the small candles below it then used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz over the remaining exposed adhesive. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 7" in size. All for now. Sue x
Hi Sue this is beautiful, who wouldn't want to open the envelope to this card on your birthday, it's special so thank you for sharing your inspiration xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another wonderful sample today, as I get older the number of candles are getting heavier and heavier ha ha so this card would be brilliant for my twin sister, thank you for the inspiration.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Good Morning Sue. A lovely card today. And I think this would be lovely for the people who don't like their age to be shown on their card ... just to let them know they are a year older. A very meaningful sentiment. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds Please stay safe and well🙏.
