Join us! It is DIE week at Just Us Girls. Carol M is challenging us to dies this week to create BIRTHDAY cards.
You might recognize this Spellbinders die set as Christmas. I decided I would try to extend these dies into the birthday category! I think changing up red and green for pinks and lime green, and a birthday sentiment, creates a new feel for this set. The set comes with a small candle but the pieces are very small and I was unable to adhere them (with my arthritis). I attached the duo to an embossed card front, added a layered sentiment, and stickles for shine. As always, I made four multiples of this card for donation to Little Birthday Angels, a local agency who ensures every child, who might not otherwise, has a birthday celebration.
