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

Perfect for a quick make, Perfect for all kinds of background paper, so many ways to use the big dies/stamps and after all the experimental work you've done and passed your knowledge to us how can we fail lol.

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.
