Something Saturday - Brightest Birthday Kit

  Hi there Creators Today we're checking out one of the new kits, I have to say WOW!, maybe it's the holographic blingy bits (ooooo bling....🤣)  if you're a regular reader of my blog or watch my YouTube or Facebook channels then you'll know I can't resist bling.  Anyway check out the kit here: Brightest Birthday Kit And here are the cards it makes.... oh and their matching (also blingy) envelopes. Then you'll notice on the first card with the balloons it has a box that has the holographic outline, which is actually a sticker, so in the video I show you how to get the sticker off and onto a separate piece of card without having to pick it off and re-piece it yourself.

To make these cards I used the Beautiful Shapes Dies, in particular the largest plain circle, I cut 9 of these from the pretty paper, plus one from scrap paper The Scrap paper one I folded into quarters, then drew the straight lines to create a square (so I could work out what size template square I needed)  measured that up and cut a square from thicker card to be my template: I then folded my pretty paper circles round the square, removed the square and pressed them down properly. Once all were folded I then stuck them onto a spare square of cardstock (I made mine 8cm square as I knew the length of the pattern would be 9cm and I didn't want the card to show underneath) when you're sticking them on, start in the middle ...
