Red Birthday Card

Hi Everybody,


So here is another deep colored card and this one is vibrant in red. Both the white and red card is from   Papermill Direct

The background has been sparkled with glitter from Glitter Magic and I have covered the whole die cut shape.

The satin ribbon is from my "Stash" and the centre of the bow some that I bought from China.

There is a heart shaped glass beaded Hatpin add to the bow and it can be removed as a small gift.
The inside is lined and the red ribbon is at an angle on the embossed card.

It is very sparkly and the picture does not do it the justice it deserves.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  1. Christina,
    What a striking card...it definitely isn't pastel, but it sure makes a statement, and that hatpin, just beautiful. A great work of art.

  2. This would be a beautiful combination for a Christmas card. I must admit that my tastes run more to the pastels for this style of card. Nonetheless, it is certainly very striking.

  7. Good morning Christina,
    Waaaaooo, boy is your card an eye stopper today Christina in its deep red and white. That's one way of waking us up in the morning although i believe you in the fact that it will be stunning in person. I was quite comfortable with the quite serene beauties that you put up for you to knock me for six this morning.
    I loved yesterdays card and everything about it as i love the autumn colours and the lovely verse that you had in it.Now as i have this stamp for once i can make a different version to yours but still using the same stamps. Thank you Christina and i am glad you had such a lovely time at Torville and Dean ice show.
    Love and crafty hugs

  12. Wow! This is amazing! I have to push myself to use strong colors more, I think. It's usually Christmas or Valentine's Day that I use red, but this is wonderful. Thank you.
