Good Morning.

I love making birthday cards and I also love using bright colours so I thought it would be fun to make a colourful and bright card today.

The products I used are:

• Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 250gsm
• Luxury C6 Envelopes - Ivory 135gsm
• Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm
• Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml

You will also need:

• Flower stamp ( I used Uniquely Creative Stamps)
• Copic markers
• Nuvo drops
• Sequins
• Pink pigment Ink
• Embossing powder (WOW)
• Heat gun

To make the card base I trimmed and scored a piece of Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm. I then trimmed a smaller piece of White Card Super Smooth 250gsm and with my pink pigment ink I blended some ink onto the card. I then adhered this onto my card base with some Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

Using another piece of White Card Super Smooth 250gsm I stamped and coloured my image. I then trimmed this out and adhered onto the card with some Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

For the greeting I heat embossed a sentiment with embossing powder onto another piece of White Card Super Smooth 250gsm and trimmed this down. I adhered at the bottom of the card using some more Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

To finish the card off I added some nuvo drops and sequins. I adhered the sequins using Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml.

I also used a Luxury C6 Envelopes - Ivory 135gsm to pop my card into ready for the recipient to receive.

I hope you have fun making some lovely bright and colourful cards they are sure to make someone smile.
