Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with special guest Jeanette Egemann all the way over in Germany! she is an extremely successful demonstrator, in fact she was No. 15 in the world last year; hopping with Jeanette is such an honour.
There are lots of wonderful creations on Jeanette's blog, I drew inspiration form this card:
What I love about this design is the use of a background stamp combined with the die cut sentiment, and of course the little elements of bling - I just adore bling! Here is what I was inspired to create:
There are so many amazing background stamps in the new catalogue, I've used "Sheet Music" for my background. My husband studied music at school and even played classical guitar in state orchestra, so this stamp was a must have.
I layered my sentiment using Early Espresso and Soft Suede die cuts - the Happy Birthday framelit is just gorgeous, and to finish I've added a little bling with using the Metallics Sequins Assortment - the faceted sequins come in 3 sizes & 5 colours.
Here's a closeup of the offset die cuts - the colours I've used have created the illusion of a shadow and it really makes the sentiment pop of the card, but it is still flat for posting = win, win
