Started with a Kraft card base and a piece of Dotty Biscotti patterned paper, which I stamped with Background Basics: Woodgrain. I tied a bow using Snow White satin luxe ribbon before adhering a strip of True Black cardstock behind which was cut with the Eyelet Lace Border die.
Die-cut a Fillable Frames #4 frame from Stamper’s Select White cardstock and stamped the co-ordinating frame. The sentiment is from Say It With Style and underlined with loads of pink rhinestones!
For the birthday number I used Get To The Point and stamped the arrow using Raspberry Fizz unk and numbers and ampersand using Versafine before carefully cutting out. Adhered all the layers with Pinflair Glue Gel for depth and voila!!
I’d love to hear what you think of this card! I submitted it for publication last June and it didn’t get picked up but I still love it!!
Well, I have an amazing party planned for my birthday and I’m really excited!! I hope that the coming year is a great one and can help me out of the negativity I’ve been feeling lately. Thanks so much for stopping by!!
