I made this card for a friend's 'Special Birthday' using one of my 'go to' dies for male cards.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" white matt card blank
My Favorite Things 'Big Birthday Wishes' , Memory Box 'Classic Numbers' and Xcut 'Star' dies
Snippets of white matt card, dark, medium and pale blue textured card
I trimmed a snippet of white card to 6" x 4" and die cut the sentiment from the centre before attaching it to the card blank. I cut two narrow strips of dark blue card and attached them down each side. I die cut 'BIG' from dark blue card and inlaid the letters. The rest of the sentiment was die cut from medium blue card and inlaid into the panel. I die cut the stars from dark, medium and pale blue and attached them to the card. To finish I die cut '70' from pale blue card and attached it to the dark blue star.
I am entering the following challenges:
Allsorts - Shades of Blue

Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes
