Hello crafty friends,
For Scrapy Land's Challenge #72 I created these two birthday cards, using the Solo Sentiment Happy Birthday die by Die-Versions:
The card on the right is very feminine... I die cut the happy birthday from a small print floral pattern paper, die cut a second happy birthday from white card stock and glued them together just a little off set, so that I could see a tiny white border/shadow. I used the happy birthday die again to die cut a craft foam version for dimension. I used two fussy cut flowers on the bottom left corner of my card for added interest. Here's a close up of the card:
The card on the left is less feminine and therefore can work for a guy. I die cut the happy birthday from a striped print pattern paper, popped it up on foam tape and added three interesting stamped and fussy cut unicorns.
I love this happy birthday die... It's my favorite of all the birthday dies I have. I reach for it a lot! Why do I love it so? Because of it's size. It's big and bold and the offset letters make it fun. Both of these card bases are from a value pack of 5x6.5 blank white cards.
Thanks for stopping bye today. Please join us for this challenge. You have until Sept 3rd to submit your projects. The winners... one selected randomly and one selected by the Design Team will both receive a $10 gift certificate to Scrapy Land. Until next time... take care.
What a fun set of Birthday cards! Love it!
