Happiest Birthday Wishes with Phrases & Frames

Wow, what a crazy storm last night. The lightning and thunder went on for hours lighting up the sky for miles. We were under a tornado warning here at my house like so many have been lately. While the power companies work to restore the outages I count us among the lucky. Since our internet just came back up I thought I’d share with you a fun card with a little extra ump today.

Clean and simple, this card uses a pattern from the Everyday Essentials Mix & Match Designer Series Paper (167702). The way this card uses this pattern it has a masculine feel to me, how about you? Done in Misty Moonlight and Pool Part the extra ump comes from the Phrases & Frames Impression Dies (167586).

This set of dies uses a fun Impressions Plate (167767) that really makes the special impressions dies pop! And the pop is built right in to them. When you use them as always the extra detail is subtle, but when you use them with the Impressions Plate, wow! You can sure see the difference.

I love layouts like this – clean and simple and the surprise is all the texture of this little die set. A card sure to please that special birthday boy.

So if you’re looking for something fun to add to your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and Dies this might be just the add on your looking for. Why not stop by my Online store and check it out today?
