Hello crafters! how about this sweet birthday card for today's offering! I started with a piece of the blue striped paper from the Dots 'N Stripes Paper Pad as the background. I used the Hexagon Aperture and cut into it, then added mounting foam to the back of it. I attached it to a piece of white card as a backing. Using the Birthday Accessories set, I added the cake, balloon, cupcakes, party hat and present to the various apertures in shade of pink. I added a little fluffy stuff to the cake as an accent. I cut the Make A Wish sentiment for the middle aperture. I added a square white frame to the top of it using the Double Stitched Squares, then seated it on a Scalloped Squares piece for added detail. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue and all that visit today.
This inspiration is so adorably cute. Do you know I still have your very first paper pad from years ago, I can't bring myself to use any of it lol its for looking through and stroking lol. I loved the suggestions for all my cardstock bits, I dip into 3 saves but the rest of my large storage boxes are buried deep inside the craft wardrobe and I have to be completely honest and I know I won't use it cuz I can't get to it so the suggestions yesterday were so lovely, two important places that will definitely get a call asking if they could put it to good use, thanks lovelies ❤ xx
Stay well, safe and happy xxx
Beautiful cakes and card to match them x

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous sample, I love all the little dies that come in a die set, they can be used all on the same card or just a few - this is the birthday theme but of course it could be a celebration for anything, with the balloons and cake, perhaps a christening, or engagement party or something like that, very versatile collection. Love it.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
A lovely card that will cover all generations from 1-100 years old & of course both male & female making it a really versatile card. Thank you Sue for all your inspiration.

Hi Sue and everyone, todays inspiration is so sweet ! I'm loving all the little treats and the addition of fluffy stuff. I bought the fluffy stuff but not found anything to use it for yet. Mind you I haven't crafted so much yet since my operation. But im getting there.
Steph, I use my little scraps for sentiments or letters when I'm personalising a card. Also the small embellishments like Sue has used today all s great way to use up scraps. Go to the scap box first before the full card pieces.
Hugs

Hi Sue
A lovely card. So sweet, in every sense! I love the paper from the paper pad and the scalloped square die really sets it all off.
Steph - glad you will use some of your scraps and donate the rest.
Love Helen xxx

A sweet b-day card today. The Birthday Accessories are adorable while the cupcakes and the cake look so yummy. The fluffy stuff to the cake is the cherry on the top. Thank you for the inspiration, Sue.

This is a sweet card Sue in more ways than one, the only trouble is it made me feel hungry! Who can resist Cake ha ha!

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services. For a perfect investment and good strategies contact Mr Bernie Doran via WhatsApp :+1(424)285-0682 or Telegram : @Bernie_doran_fx or Email : Bernie.doranfx01@gmail.com
