My Card for Nephew's Birthday

 I used the exact same stamp set here as in the previous card I made for Mom to present to Nick...
It's actually a pop-up die - used flat as a card front, and made into a shaker card.

I used lots of gold on this...  LOVE that nephew of mine!  We are very proud of him!

Gold embossing, gold foil paper, and gold glimmer paper.  I used a black base for two reasons... 1.  it's his favorite color, and 2.  it looks great as a backing for the gold!

 Look closely at the white background - I scored it diagonally!

 Here you can see a closer view of the balloons, and the differences in the types of papers.  I've said it before, the glimmer paper from Stampin' Up! really sparkles!


 Happy Birthday, Nick!  We love you and are very proud of you! 💖

Bonus Christmas Card

This year I've gotten over my 'dislike' of sequins on cards.  Actually, I've used them quite a bit.  I thought this would be a cute idea.  The people that see it really love it! 

 I'll admit to using too many sequins as "snow" behind the window but as an excuse, it was my first time in the shaker card.  Next time... use less!

The thing that took the longest on this card was measuring the back of the window die cut to cut the window sheet to the correct size.  Otherwise, everything went together quite quickly!
