Happy Birthday

Hi crafters! Need a quick birthday card?  This is it!  I started with a piece of white gloss card and used alcohol inks across it in a diagonal manner.  I used Sailboat Blue, Sunshine Yellow, Purple Twilight and Citrus.  I used the Slimline Stars Background and cut into the alcohol inked card.  I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled off the backing paper and attached the background to it.  I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz all over it to fill in the exposed adhesive areas in the cut out stars.  I used the Slimline Essential Frames and cut a white frame around the background.  I used the Noble Happy Birthday cut in white and added to the frame centre with mounting foam.  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

    Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a stunning creation today, I absolutely love all the slimline dies perfect for our card blank sizes and the stars die and finally the Happy Birthday, I am so pleased I bought all of these when they were released. The colours in the background are amazing and finished off with the bling as well, fantastic.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

    Good Morning Sue. Ohhh yes ... I agree with all our lovely bloggers this morning. A fabulous slimline card. The only thing I don't have are the stars🌟 background and the alcohol inks. But I have to confess I only recently (couple of months ago) bought the Noble Happy Birthday die. And STEPHANIE is right of course ... an absolutely brilliant investment. Beautiful sample Sue. Thankyou. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
    PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
    Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds

    Bright & cheerful today - just what we all need! I have this die but haven’t managed a background that shouts like this one! Think I need to invest in some of these inks. Thank you Sue.

    What a bright and cheery birthday card! And just think of all the brightly coloured stars that have been cut out (the "waste" from the die, if you will) - I'm sure they could be used in some way, perhaps added into a shaker card?
