I've gotta be honest. When I saw that I was scheduled for this day, my first thought was: but I just did that. Twice. (here + here)
I thought I was out of ideas. But you know what?
With MCT, the possibilities are ENDLESS.
For this fabulous and simple birthday card, I used the ornament die from Warm Holiday Fun and the banner from Chocolate Greetings to make the candle. I swirled some Dazzling Details on the flame after coloring it in with my Copics.
The teal layer is embossed with Stampin' Up!'s Chevron Embossing Folder. The card was a cinch to make and is perfect for our nephew's 2nd birthday in May!

I hope you were inspired!

ReplyDeleteI though that exact thing...this is your specialty!!!! Love your candle, great idea!!! Lee-Ann :)
ReplyDeleteSimply perfect!!! I'm having one of those, "Why didn't I think of that?" moments!
ReplyDeleteYes, you have been using Emma's dies in a lot of fun and creative ways. Thanks, I always love to try and do that and see other people do it too. It just makes them that much more versatile. I have got to say that I absolutely LOVE this candle. That die is PERFECT for the flame and the candle itself it great too. Awesome job!!!! Hugs- Glora
ReplyDeleteWOW AWESOME idea Veronica, LOVE your card!!!Have a SUPER day my friend :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Wish I had seen this a month ago when I had to make a birthday card for my 19 year old son. I was looking for some candle svg's. Guy cards are sooo hard for me - I always want to add bling and ribbons and "girl" stuff.
ReplyDeleteVeronica ~ OMG! Are you kidding me ~ this is BRILLAINT idea and YES I am stealing this one too! I LOVE how this turned out and I have a birthday coming up later this year that this TOTALLY can work for too! YAY!!! AWESOME as always!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a good idea! I love how you made the candle flame. Dianne
