Birthday Wish

Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to my blog. Today I am sharing a 70th birthday card I created recently. As I mentioned in a previous post, I know a few people who are celebrating their big "0" birthday this year including me so I will making a few cards to celebrate.

For my card today I pulled out my Double Interlocking Concertina Card die set which is a part of the Showstoppers 2 Collection from Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott. 

I recently purchased a few birthday themed die sets from Papertrey Ink, so I pulled out the In Stitched - Cake Builder and Build a Party Hat die sets and added them to the left and right panels to my card. I also added the "Happy Birthday" to the party hat which is from Papertrey Ink's This is Big Sentiments - Birthday stamp/die set.

For the concertina portion of the card I used the Chunky Alphabet die set from Made to Surprise and came up with the wording "A 70th Bday Wish".

Here is a look at my card when it is folded flat ready to be placed in an envelope. It will fit into a 6 x 6 envelope.

And finally a look at the back of the card. I added white panels to each of the large panels and added two of the birthday sentiments included in the Made to Surprise Showstopper Puns Sentiment set. I then added a few party hats and streamers which are all from the Party Hat Builder die set from Papertrey Ink.
