Birthday Balloons

Today I am sharing my latest card I
made for the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog.

My card is 6" x 4" and I first cut the Happy Birthday on a small piece of purple card using the Die-Versions - Corner Concepts/Happy Birthday. 

Next I cut a piece of purple card to attach to the sentiment 

corner, and adhered to the card base.

Using a slighter smaller piece of white card, I ran it 

through my machine,using an embossing folder to add some 

texture, then attached it to the purple card, leaving a small border.

Next, using the Elizabeth Craft Designs - Balloons die, I cut three 

balloons in coloured card and three strings in silver mirri card. 

I then attached them to the card with glue and 3D foam pads. 

I covered the balloons with glossy accents to give them some shine

and added the tiny bow and purple gems to finish.

Here are the dies I have used:-

Female Birthday Card

Today, I am sharing my latest design team card I 

have made for the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog.

I started by making a 5 3/4" square card base in navy blue card. 

I then cut a 4 1/2" square card in pearlised yellow card and ran it through my 

embossing machine using an Embossalicious chevron embossing folder.

Next I mat and layered this card onto blue and yellow card and 

adhered to my card base.

Using the Dies R Us - Elegant Corner die, I cut four corners in blue card and glued

them to the yellow embossed card to make a frame.

I then cut the Sue Wilson Designs Expressions - Happy Birthday and

the Memory Box - Resting Birds in blue card, and adhered them to the 

yellow card, using only two of the four resting birds.

I added pearl gems to each corner to complete the card.
