A Super Sweet Happy Birthday Card by Anja!

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Hello crafty friends, happy Thursday! Let’s keep up social distancing and continue to connect virtually with friends and family!

Today Anja’s back to share a super sweet Happy Birthday card with us.

Anja die cut some white cardstock with the largest die from the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangle Overlay stand alone die to give some nice looking boarder details. She stamped out images were from The Sweetest Truck stamp set, Copic colored them and cut them out using the coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts.

I love that she had both the cute bear server and the little girl looking out the window of the truck.

She blended her background using Mustard See, Spiced Marmalade and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Inks. These colors go cohesively with her colored images. I love how she masked of a portion on the panel while blending to leave a thick white boarder for some bold contrast.

She then white heat embossed the Happy Birthday sentiment with on black cardstock.

For some final touches, she stamped the tiny starts and hearts in matching inks to create a tone-on-tone effect. She also added some glossy accents over the windows of the truck for some shimmer and shine!

Thank you Anja for sharing this sweet creation! A clean and simple card is always the best!

Today’s sneak peek is on 2 of the 3 new Stand-Alone dies, Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays, and Dots Meet Dashes Small Rectangles Overlays.

These two die sets give you elegant boarder cut lines that will easily spice up your projects. Use the smaller die-cut panels to create a focal point, or simply use the bigger sizes ones to get beautiful boarders for your card base.

I love how the different sized frames from both sets can overlay to create depths. These sets are definitely a must-have in your craft room.
