Birthday Wish
by Laura Fulcher

Greetings friends.  Today I wanted to take a break from holiday cards and focus on a birthday card.  After all, I am always in need of birthday cards!

To make this card, I cut out the Wish Journal Frame out of a square of kraft cardstock, white cardstock and blue cardstock to later piece everything together:

As you can see, the die cut left an open square out of the kraft cardstock.  I saved the kraft wish rainbow cutout for another card.  I wanted to embed my white cardstock “wish,” so I placed a piece of really strong tape behind the open square and stuck the white piece on top.  I added the blue cardstock pieces around the rainbow and sentiment and sprinkled glitter over the rainbow.  The die cuts out the pieces of the rainbow, so I colored each piece with Copic markers.

I decided the rainbow pieces were darker than I wanted, so I glued them behind the glitter (on the backside of the kraft cardstock).  I liked the muted look of rainbow once the pieces were behind the glitter:

To finish the card, I added the “birthday” diecut over the rainbow and added some sequins for extra bling:

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
