Hello Cheery Lynn die lovers! Bonnie here today from
Make Time to Craft to share a pretty birthday card that I created for my Mom featuring lots of beautiful dies from
Cheery Lynn Designs.
I find that birthday cards are the most needed cards and no matter how many I make, I always seem to be behind. This
Birthday Wishes Circle Sentiment is a great addition to your die collection and it can be used over and over in different settings without looking like you are always using the same die.
I created my marbled background papers using Distress Inks and Distress Oxide Inks. I just love creating my own background papers because they are always so beautiful. I also used the Distress paper for the wording in the Birthday Wishes die. I cut the die once in dark purple cardstock and again with the Distress Ink paper. I then snipped out the words only and layered them on to the dark purple cut. It also pops up the words just a little to make them stand out.
My Tea Roses were created by alternating layers of solid cardstock with Distress Ink paper. I just love two tone roses. I shaped the petals before layering them for a realistic rose look.
I topped my card off with a pretty bi-color bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using 5/8" Rose Bloom and Regal Purple Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. The bow was topped off with a pretty heart shaped pearl embellishment also from RRR.
I also ran a piece of Regal Purple Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon topped with Tutti Frutti Chevron Stripe Grosgrain Ribbon across the center of the card under the sentiment.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. What's your favorite die to use when making birthday cards?
