Today I’m sharing the card I made for my Dad’s birthday. As he likes a hot drink, the Birthday Mug Additions set from Pretty Pink Posh is perfect.
The mug is from the Winter Mug set. I die cut this from patterned paper, along with some white card die cuts to add behind for strength and dimension. I added the drink part using brown card stock, then the cream swirl on top is cut from pearl white sparkle card. This element is from the Valentine Mug Additions set.
Next, I die cut the different pieces from the Birthday Mug Additions set. I used a colour palette of blues, yellow and pink. I pieced them together to get two balloons, a party hat, and a slice of cake.
I wanted to add some interest to my A2 card base, so I used the Starry Background stencil to add some blue stars. I then adhered the mug and birthday pieces on top.
For the sentiment, I used the recently released Large Dad / Father hot foil plate. I foiled it on white with Spellbinders Cobalt Blue foil.
I used the Dad / Father Shadow dies to cut the foiled sentiment out, added some additional layers for dimension, and adhered it on top of the mug to finish.
