Happy Birthday to you!!

I don't know about everyone else but I always seem to need Birthday cards and bags for my friends and family so what better die to share today than the new Happy Birthday die set.  I grabbed some fun papers and goodies out of my stash for this one and set to work to make something fun and bright to give some pretty things and a gift card i bought for my friends birthday this week.

To start my project i measured the front of my little white bag and cut a smaller mat in turquoise

paper.  Then i cut another piece of printed flower paper just a bit smaller and glued all of it to the front of the bag to dry.  For the Happy Birthday medallion i cut the letters in white card stock and set them aside and then cut 2 circles using a metal die.  One in white vellum and the other in the same turquoise that i did the first mat in.  I glued all of them together with adhesive and then added a few rhinestones, the sentiment and a pretty adhesive flower on the bottom that i had in my stash to match. And finally to finish it i tied some pretty ribbons to the handle on the top and it's ready to stuff with a wonderful gift for my friend.

Here is a closeup so that you can see the die better.  I really love the swirls on this one and how pretty that they overlap on each other.  And here is the link to the store just in case you need to add this beauty to your shopping list  "Happy Birthday Die".... Have a wonderful and creative day!!
