Musical Giant

 Today’s card is using the giant happy birthday die, with some music paper.

Cut the paper with the die first, keeping all the pieces attached,

then cut it in black card, inlaying just the letters.

I thought it would be good for a music lover /musician who likes simplicity.

Giant Happy Birthday

Hello, I bought this lawn fawn die recently, as I often need quick cards,

I love paper piecing, and this seemed a fab idea.

Lots of different pics to share….

This group shot shows how you can cut two and switch the letters.

Sometimes you need to inlay additional bits to the letters, so I kept all the pieces until I’d finished.

Above picture, bottom right might be my favourite. 

I coloured the letters and used the frame as a guide to glue them down.

Above was very messy, a fail as the die moved but I didn’t want to waste it.

I should have added some of the inside lines of the letters.

However this will probably end up in the bin.

I did like the striped paper one though.

As it’s the first time I’ve used this die, I’m entering the NBUS Challenge #49
