A birthday card today using up some snippets of plain card which I've embossed.
The paintbrushes are from the Sweet Dixie 'DIY Tools' set of dies. I die cut them first in snippets of silver mirror card and the again in each of the five colours. I snipped the bristles off the coloured paintbrushes and layered them over the silver ones. The letters are Memory Box 'Upper Case Alphabet Soup'. The 'Birthday' is from Sue Wilson's 'Happy Birthday' set of dies.
I am joining in the following challenges:
