Weekend Video – Happy Birthday
February22
This weekend card is actually a remake of the card I made early this week.
If you read my previous post I made that card for the Embellish magazine challenge but then realized it should have been a birthday card. So here we go again … another version for the same challenge.
You can scroll down to watch the video and then read the list of supplies. I upload a new video every weekend so If you enjoy them don’t forget to subscribe on my YouTube channel or subscribe on my blog

BasicGrey 6×6 paper pad – Lemonade
K&Co Chipboard Alphabet Box – Remake Collection Earth Browns

I never think about embossing on paper and then cutting them out, when you first started I thought I don’t think I’m going to like this card as well but as soon as you began to cut the little hat and things out I could see it take shape, so very very cute!!! This is the first I’ve seen someone adhere the paper to the chipboard letters, how neat they look after you got done! Thanks for the inspiration, as always your videos make my weekend!

Thanks Tejal! I would love to speak over as I work but do you really want to listen to my accent? LOL! I guess I should do that at some point
… or should I talk in Greek and have subtitles?!

Yeah! That part about you talking in Greek! hmm…it would sound Greek to me(ok, I know that was lame). I think maybe you could have subtitles in the video as and when you were thinking..it might work the same way…

Ciao!

wow…. that was difficult to understand! You are so sweet thanks a lot. I just added a link to the supplies list where you can find those sanding files. If you don’t buy from USA contact me and I’ll send you a couple of other shops in UK …. or you can always search on ebay
They are called “Precision File set” by BasicGrey … about $6

Grazie! Scusa se ti scrivo in italiano, ma con l’inglese me la cavo veramente male
acquisto raramente in USA, meglio sarebbe in UK, comunque, ora che so il nome, provo a cercare su ebay
grazie ancora!

Sooo cute!! Thanks a lot Vicky, you have given me so many new ideas again!! Never would have thought how relatively easy it is to “dress” plain alphabets in cute pattern paper!
Bye, am looking forward to your next videos!

Great card, Vicky! I just love the little birthday motifs added to the letters and the string on the balloon…charming little details that take this card over the top! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful videos. (…love your little helper too!)

Hi Vicky! Love your weekend videos! Love seeing your little helper’s hand in there, too! She must want to craft with mommy!
