Wishes For A Beautiful Birthday

 Hello bloggers!  I started with a piece of Heather card and cut the Decorative Drapes Border twelve times in black.  I glued them to the background in groups o two facing each other across the card.  Next I cut the Looped Squares in white and added it to the centre of the card.  I cut the Della die with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I coloured the white die cut piece with alcohol markers for the leaves.  I glued the black die cut on top of the white one.  I cut the die again out of Heather card and used the fall away pieces from the flowers and paper pieced them into the die.  I stamped the sentiment from the Sending Sunshine die set and then cut the inner decorative oval to go over it.  I trimmed away the excess card and added it to the middle of the die.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2"  x  9 1/4"  in size.

Hi Sue. What a good idea to use the looped squares together with the border dies which also have loops (although slightly different), they work so well together to make such a pretty card.
