Birthday Wishes

Hi Bloggers.

We're heading back down to Glasgow today. I'm hoping to be able to meet up with a friend who I haven't seen for 30 years! I think last time we saw each other we went to see Big Country at the Glasgow Apollo - loved it! I did have quite a crush on the lead singer, Stuart Adamson!

Here's today's card -

For the background, I popped the Couture Creations French Frame onto a piece of Milk Card and stamped the Curly Corner Stamp through it using Jet Black Archival. I quickly removed the frame, added Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder and heat set. I ran it through the Grand Calibur with the Couture Creations Irish Clubs Embossing Folder. I ran it through a second time to extend the design.

I cut the Couture Creations French Frame of Black Card and glued it around the Curly Corner.

 

I stamped the sentiment from the All Occasions Sentiments Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Clear Powder. I cut it pot using Couture Creations Cameo Die.

 I wrapped some Black Crochet Ribbon around the bottom section of the card. I cut a border out of Milk Card using one of the dies from the Couture Creations Chandeliers Set and glued it on top of the ribbon. I added some Black Organza Ribbon Roses and some Black Pearls.

I assembled the card as shown adding some more Black Pearls to the top corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.
