A special request with sparkle and shine

 


Hi everyone, a friend asked me to make a card for her aunt. 
She wanted some shimmer, no sentiment and just the number 96 for her upcoming birthday.

Mica spray stains fit the bill for the shimmer and shine, and I thought this 3D botanical embossing folder added lots of interest and texture.

I had spritzed the cardstock with the mica stains before embossing it, and there was enough left to diecut the numbers from. I layered them up for dimension.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday, sparkle & shine.
Try it on Tuesday, Keep it Simple.


Little Red Wagon, sparkle & shine.


Supplies:
Distress mica spray stains; Sizzix botanical 3D embossing folder; Kaisercraft number dies; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

This beautiful card will fit the bill perfectly Cathy and the mica shine and pretty colours with the darker purple tone on the numbers so they stand out against the terrific EF background is the perfect look for this birthday card, and 96 how wonderful! x
