Bling for a Birthday!

Hello, everyone! 
I'm joining the fun at Make It Monday with a sparkly bling-y birthday card. Lexi shared the glitter inlay technique and I gave it a try! 





My card uses the Fiesta Birthday and Seasonal Borders: Spring stamps. The Mix & Mat: Pretty Brackets Die cut is filled with turquoise glitter. Tempting Turquoise Ink from SU made the best match with the glitter. The great thing about this technique is that using adhesive paper and burnishing the glitter to make it stick, also keeps it from going anywhere, something very nice for the recipient. 

This is my last hurrah to spring and summer, wish they could last a bit longer, don't you? 

Be yourself
     Delight in your craft 
        Make something beautiful!

Beautiful card! How nice to have many PTI dies that work with this technique too!

How pretty with all the sparkle behind the lattice! Tempting Turquoise certainly is a perfect match and I love the leaves stamped in it. Lots of crisp white to make everything pop. Summer is winding down, for sure.

Beautiful Cindy! What a great die to use for this technique. The colors you used compliment each other perfectly. Yes, I do wish summer would last a bit longer. Like another month or two would be good. ;0)
