Hi y’all! I’m participating in my first Craft Roulette Challenge! This birthday card is pretty different from my normal style but, I think it’s super fun! The colors were inspired by the Color Hue Challenge.
Texture and shine! 2 of my favorite things in a card! For the white background, I used an embossing folder to give it some dimension. I angled cut it and offset it with gold foil paper. I tried something different this time around and embossed a sentiment on the foil paper! It turned out better than I expected. Thankfully the happy birthday fit perfectly!
For the frosting I ink blended 2 different shades of Altenew Dye ink onto a light pink paper. For the candle, I alternated between gold foil and gold sparkle paper. The cupcake liner I altered with a muted gold textured paper and a foil gold paper. I backed the card on pink. I hope y’all enjoyed this card and it inspires you to take a shake at a handmade birthday card soon!
