Birthday Wishes
Hi bloggers! Again, I have had a rummage through my scrap pieces and found a bunch of leftover pixied pieces. I cut the Lattice Frame out of black card. I added a piece of black gloss card behind the lattice background. I used the Birthday Gifts die and cut them all out of the pixied card pieces. I added the presents with mounting foam and stacked them to create a pile of gifts! I cut the Birthday Wishes Block sentiment and glued it to the top of the card. 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

Hi Sue.
Oh how greedy and wonderful if every package had one of our wish list gifts inside, oooh how exciting, I'd make it last alllll day.
A fabulous piece of inspiration I just love everything about this sample it takes me back to my teens when fun was fun and the age I'm reaching next week didn't exist 😭
All I can wish for is that if I wish hard enough this die will be wrapped and waiting for me. Talking of wrapping, wrap up extra warm it's so horribly cold at the moment.
Love a gentle hugs to all that need one today xxx
Hi Sue

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, oh my goodness, these presents look amazing, the embossing on them is brilliant and all so colourful on the black and gloss background. I would be in seventh heaven if I was able to open all those presents, how wonderful. On my list to do.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Hi Sue,
What a gorgeous birthday card. The lovely colourful presents which it seems everyone would like, really show up against the black background.

Hi Sue
Your colours and inspiration always inspiring me this is so beautiful done. If only I could get my mojo back so hard to find it once you lost it.

A very bold, bright card today, love it. Might try something like this in the new year as it would be ideal to have standing by for those birthdays you almost forgot!
Hi Sue
Happy Saturdays everyone x
Sorry not been here for a couple of days. Been a bit under the weather.
My goodness this card is eye poppingly striking. Love it. It would grab everyone’s attention and I’m all for that. In my younger day there was a real trend for mainly black cards with a pop of bright colour. This certainly takes that style of card to another level. FAB-YOU-LUSS!!
Take care one and all x
Sending you all positive thoughts x
