Happy Birthday card...

Hello everyone,

It´s Yvonne here all the way from  a sunny Holland and... with my very first blogpost as DT-member of Quietfire....
no need to say I'm a very proud happy girl!

I love making romantic/vintage style cards and I hope I can inspire you with my little projects.
If you have any questions on my projects or maybe special requests, please do let me know!


Today I´m sharing with you a romantic birthday card with the "Happy Birthday Plain & Simple" (SKU 5899) set in combination with some Spellbinders dies.
I love this set of Birthday stamps for it's variety in "handwritings"...it suits every style!


The size of the white card base is 5¾"x7¾" and each layer upon is ¼" smaller in size.
For the embossed background I used  Spellbinders M-Bossabilities Floral Labels 4 and added silver accents by gently dabbing some Brilliance Platinum planet ink (using a dauber) onto the embossed parts.
The brown doily was made with Spellbinders Picot Edge Circles (I used the largest die).
Glue the doily onto the cardbase using Glue Dots Pop up Relief  for an extra 3D effect.
The Quietfire Happy Birthday sentiment was stamped on white cardstock using Jet black Archival ink and cut a banner (with scissors).
And finally embellish with a bow and lots and lots of flowers.



I'm looking forward to your comments!

Have a nice day,
Hugs,
Yvonne
