Creative Expressions - Happy Birthday Edger Die as a Card Front

Hello! It's Amanda from Rise and Procraftinate back with another card. I hope you are all having a great Friday so far. Today, I am showing off the Creative Expressions' Happy Birthday Edger die and I have paired it with the Scrapman Balloons die. The Happy Birthday Edger die is so large and intricate it can be a whole card front in and of itself. However, I thought it would be fun to add a little something else to it. There are really so many different ways to use this die, but I figured that coming out of the Christmas season where so many of us are feeling creatively drained, it would be nice to have a quick, simple card we can throw together for those birthdays that come right after Christmas, but still have a nice card to give.

I have prepared a quick video tutorial for you today. Below that, will be a few more finished product pictures as well as the supply list. I hope you enjoy!

Happy Birthday Stained Glass Card

Hello and welcome! It's Angie here today with a sparkly birthday card I created!

To make my card I diecut the Sue Wilson Butterfly Stained Glass die out of a black piece of card stock that was adhered to Stick-It adhesive paper.

For the background, I inked a background piece of white card stock with Distress Oxide Inks in reds, yellow and greens. Next I added lots of Versamark ink and some glitter embossing powder to make it shine. Below is what it looked like before I added the heat to it.

I cut a scalloped border frame with a die from my stash and added it to the outside of the butterfly die and cut the black edges down a little so that the whole panel would have a white outline from the card base.

Here's a closer look:

Lastly I cut a Impression Obsession Bottom Edger die "Happy Birthday" and added it to the bottom.

You can really see the shine from the glitter in this picture:

Supplies used:
