Pootles Birthday Bloghop

I am delighted to take part in the November Birthday Bloghop as it is MY birthday in November! It is also my youngest sons birthday too and a number of other family and friends.

I decided to showcase the card I made for my son.  He is very musical and plays quite a number of instruments so I knew I was going to use the music background stamp, I also have been doing the eclipses method a lot recently and this is what I came up with after playing around for a while.

I love how the music looks like it has come out from the sheet and wrapped around the numbers. I used the large Number Dies and the Happy Birthday die for the sentiment. I hope you like it.

To make the card I first stamped the image onto some Whisper White card stock in Black ink and heat embossed it using clear embossing powder. Then I stamped Black card stock with the same image using the White ink pad. and again embossed but this time with White embossing powder.  I matched the 2 stamped images up and cut the number out of the cards at the same time so the number could match perfectly. The black numbers were popped up on dimensionals and stuck over the same where the second set of numbers were cut out. The sentiment was die cut and snipped in half and stuck down with the Fine Tip Glue Pen. I also stamped a 'TH" and stuck this to the zero. 

I think you will agree that this is a very clever looking card, I hope my son likes it! Until next time, thanks for joining me,
