Birthday Card for a Nine Year Old

Today, I am sharing the birthday card I made for my great niece

using a balloon die I was lucky enough to win last year 

in the Snippets Playground

I die-cut the edge of the base card with the balloon die.

I embossed a couple of lines by the balloons using my Hougie board.

Next, I glued a piece of black card behind the balloons and

paper pieced them with coloured card. then added

the sentiment, number and white gel pen lines to the balloons.

The items I have used are:

Gemini Modern Edge’ables die - Balloon Bouquet

Spellbinders Nestabilities - Scalloped Circles

Cuttlebug Alphabet - Olivia

Presscut - Happy Birthday

Female Birthday Card

Today, I am sharing the birthday card I made recently for a friend.

I found the idea for the design on Pinterest.

I started by stamping the background stamp directly onto

the card base with a light silvery grey ink. 

Next I die-cut the frame three times using two of the circle dies, 

glued them together and glued it onto the card base.

Lastly, I added the flower die, white peel-off sentiment and some sequins.

The products I have used are:

Avery Elle - Simple Sentiment Dies

Spellbinders Nestabilities - Circles

Memory Box - Chloe die

Great Impressions wood mounted background stamp - Vicki Schreiner 2008
