Make A Wish

Hi,Happy Thursday. Today I got my gypsy out and made a card! I'm not good at using it that much and it often winks at me when I open the drawer!! Well it had an outing today.Lol!
I knew what I wanted to make...a birthday candle card.


I love how this turned out. I'm going to make a few more of these because I don't know about you but I still never have a last minute card to hand when I need one!


A close up of the ribbon,pin and sentiment.

I welded the candle from Wrap it Up at 9" to make the card and then cut another one to cover the front. As always everything inked and 3d foam to pop the flame.

I am entering this over at Fantabulous Cricut where the challenge this week is Birthday Bash.

Sorry,I know this is photo heavy but I just wanted to show you this last piccie. I love crystals and have them around my craft room and the sun is shining(although I don't think it will be for too long) and they make beautiful prisms and this just happened to fall as I took this photo. Doesn't it just make the candle look as if it's lit?


Have a wonderful day.
Hugs, Jayne x

Ssh! Goodnight gypsy.x

    I LOVE this, Jayne! The little star pin is such a lovely touch. I love seeing cuts that I didn't know I had, too! (I have this cartridge but haven't noticed the candle.)
    Thanks for sharing the prism photo too!
