This first card uses a die set from Michele and Concord & 9th called Cherry Nice, and it turned into a perfect birthday card for one of my granddaughters who is turning 5 next week (I swear she was just a baby last week!!). Take a look...
The BIRTHDAY WISHES sentiment was embossed in white on red cs and the red ric rac is from PTI's Skinny Ric Rac die. Thanks for sharing Michele and helping me get this birthday card made actually ahead of time!
My 2nd card uses Honey Bees Winter Birds dies from Bobby after seeing her gorgeous card HERE. I was so in love with the cardinal AND the color of the blue background that Bobby used that I had to try and replicate her card with what I had at home. I ended up using poppystamps Bird House Pop Up Easel Dies and Boho Blue cs (SU!) to make a resting place for the cardinal. I did a bunch of ink blending on the cardinal before putting the layers together, and then attached him to the house.
I'm going to add both these cards to the Can You Handle the Pressure challenge since I used embossing folders for the backgrounds on both cards, and also the NBUS challenge since I have never used either of the dies before.
Thank you sooooo much Michele & Bobby for sharing your supplies and helping me with a birthday card and one more for the Christmas stash! Crafting friends are absolutely the best!!
