Happy Birthday.. Happy Birthday.. Happy Birthday.

 Good Evening Everybody,

Just posting a birthday card, which depending on which colour of inks you use, could be for female or male card.

Close up...

 I have used a 6"x6" White base card.

I stamped three images of the birthday stamp in three different colours, embossed them with clear embossing powder, then cut each of them out. Die cut a large scalloped edge square twice, using 14cm and a 13cm die, in order to make a frame. I embossed the frame with a check embossing folder. I attached the frame to the main card just putting the stamped images (2 of them) under the frame at the corners before I stuck the frame down. Add the third stamped image to the centre of the card. Die cut another frame using the scalloped edge die this time 8cm and 6cm. Attach the smaller frame with foam pads. I used one of the inks to cover a piece of card 15cm x 2cm and then embossed with the clear embossing powder and embossed with a Happy Birthday embossing folder. Add across the centre of the card sticky tape at each end and foam in the centre. Colour another small piece of card using a different coloured ink, clear emboss then die cut the photo corners. Add to the card as in the diagram.

Thank you so very much.....

 Good afternoon,

Back with a 'thank you' card. We need one of these every now and again. I have used an A5 Kraft card, landscape, that I have embossed along the front section.

Close up....

Die-cut a cream piece of card 15cm x 12cm, then run through with the embossing folder used on the front of the card. Add to the main card 1.5cm from the left edge. Add a strip of co-ordinating paper across the front 8cm x 12.5cm. Wrap a piece of string round the front of the card twice and finish at the left edge with a bow. Die-cut three rectangles 8cm x 4.5cm from the cream card and stamp the flower in each rectangle with a different coloured ink, then emboss with clear embossing powder. Stamp the flowers again and cut out and layer as on the diagram. Attach the three rectangles onto the card with foam. Stamp around the edges of the card using a background stamp. Stamp out a greeting and add to the card. Finish off with Liquid Pearls in the centre of the flowers.
