A Beautiful Birthday

An easy but soft and pretty card today. I watercoloured my background panel with DO's. I swiped them in the rainbow order then spritzed them with water before placing my card into the rainbow. I dried the panel off with my heat tool then die cut my Flowery Thinlits panel and adhered it to the rainbow base. I die-cut my sentiment two times and layered them for a bit of dimension and added a sub-sentiment. I then finished my card off with a few sequins for a bit of glitz.

I am adding my card to the following challenges...

Believe...

I created today's card by firstly swiping my embossing folder with DO Broken China then running it through my Cuttlebug. I then die cut my Christmas sentiment with white card and the base in a contrasting holographic plastic. Layered it all and added a sub sentiment and some clear sequins and tiny blue stars to finish if off.

Spirit of Christmas

 

My last card for the weekend and it's another Christmas card. I bought the Sizzix Geo Floral Frame with some birthday money so wanted to try them out. I stamped my sentiment first then die cut 2 of the frames out of the set. They are very fine so I backed them with some double sided tape before cutting. I then die cut some holly branches and added red gems for berries and clear sequins for added interest. I then mounted the panel onto some more gold card and attached it to my base.

Hibiscus Birthday

Today's card is a monochrome floral card using some hibiscus stamps that I don't use enough. I used DI's Broken China, Mermaid Lagoon & Tumbled Glass for my flowers. I then die cut 'happy' three times and adhered them together, stamped my 'birthday' and framed it and the panel with a soft grey. I also added a few blue gems to finish the card off.

Just for You

I got a late request from my son for a card for one of his colleagues that was finishing up at his work.

I didn't really have anything in my stash really suitable so I whipped up this one with a couple of my favourite go to's. I had created some background card with my DO's only a couple of days earlier so I cut off a bit of that and added one of my favourite flower die cuts. Added a couple of butterflies and the sentiment to finish off.

I am adding my card to the following challenges:

Pretty in Pink

Well it's been a while since I've had a play day in my craft room and thank goodness it was a very creative one as I had 3 birthday cards to make. My first one is for my SIL, I saw a beautiful card that Erum made for Altenew, which I have cased view card here. I absolutely adore Erum's colour pallet but I chose to go with a soft pink.
