Big Birthdays'

Celebrating Big Occasions

Today is bright at the moment but very windy and the trees are swaying as if there's no tomorrow. So for me it's batten down the hatches as my son would say and enjoy a day at home.
Again it's a man card, sorry I've used a retired embossing folder it was the one I liked best for this project.Looking at the picture of the card now I see I missed out the black ribbon used for the separation between the top and bottom it's the stitched satin ribbon and I believe it's also retired now.
It was quite easy to make, but has a bit of a pop to it I think. Hope you like it!!!

The materials used are:

Card stock: Basic Black, Emerald Envy, Shimmery White

Ink: Emerald Envy

DSP: In color stack 16 - 18

Stamp sets: Number of years

Embossing folders: Zig zag (retired)

Framelits: Large numbers, Layering ovals, Stitched shapes

Thinlits: Party pop up

Accessories: Rhinestones (NSU)

Will be back again soon with more cards

Well our eldest Grandson has a birthday again and it makes me feel really old, so far as to say, this is his last year as a teenager. But I must admit he has grown up more this year than any other which makes me so proud to say Happy Birthday Kieran.

I had no idea what I was going to do for his card this year so I just put my hand into the dies box and out popped the party pop up die and this is what I came up with, hope you like it. You could change the dsp background for a more up to date one.

The materials used are:

Card stock: emerald envy, glimmer paper (retired) Whisper white thick, whisper white

DSP: it’s my party (retired)
