Birthday Numbers

 Good morning all, I hope you are having a good week so far.

Today's card was made for my niece's husband's 30th birthday a couple of weeks ago. I started by cutting the Happy Birthday Circle Die from Simon Says Stamp from plain white card. I used three die-cuts and stacked them together for dimension.

Then I used Copic and Nuvo Alcohol Markers to colour the  letters in different shades of blue and beige.

For the background I used stamps from a Lawn Fawn set called Owen's ABC's , and stamped these with some of the paler shades from Altenew's Crisp Dye Ink Collection.

Then I stamped a large number 30 on to a circle of white card, using a Creative Stamping Stamp Set and heat embossed in with navy blue embossing powder.

Then I added it all to a bright blue note card. 

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

Birthday Circle

 Good Morning all, hope you have had a good weekend. Jude and I have been getting things ready for our holiday and trying to get some blog posts scheduled for while we are away. 

Luckily I had quite a few cards made that I haven't yet posted so I was able to use some of these. This card is one I made a few weeks ago for a friend at work. I won this Simon Says Stamp Birthday Circle die in an Instagram giveaway. 

It is a lovely die and also comes with the cupcake die too. I cut the happy birthday circle from black card and then used it as a frame on a piece of white card with a circle aperture cut in to it.

I used a 7 x 7 card blank and a piece of bright paper for the base, then put the white layer on top. I then cut the cupcake die from black card and from a stripey paper and layer them together to make the cupcake. Then I added some glossy accents and a few micro beads to make the sprinkles on top. 

I used the Finlays ABC's dies from Lawn Fawn for the letters, then finished the card with a few sequins. 

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.
