TLC177 Birthday
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: jafields76

 This is my first grid card and for my friend Tracie. Her birthday is on Friday. I really love this new technique! I can definitely envision myself using it often! =)

I pondered a bit on how to make the grid since I do not own a Scor-pal. Instead I used my photo cutter and a mechanical pencil. Using the blade runner for a guide, I scored the 1/2 inch lines perfectly! I rubbed a cotton ball covered in pink ink over the grid shadowing the edges a bit darker than the middle. I stacked pink sheer ribbon over caramel ribbon and tied at one end of the grid. I embossed the candle in brown. Tracie just LOVES glitter (not to mention pink and brown together!) so I took some sparkle glaze and dabbed a bit onto the candle which I then covered in this great pink glitter. I used the end of a paintbrush to add the dots the same way. I used a corner rounder on all of the layers and the card itself.

I really like the way this turned out! What do you think?

Love it! thanks for the very detailed descripton on the score pal substitute. I don't have one either and will have to try your method.
I love the glitter! Always looking for use of the big birthday candles too.

This is just a great card: love it. I especially like all the glitter you've used and the grid is just perfect. I cant believe you dont have a scorpal - your grid is so perfect! your ribbon is one spectacular choice for those beautiful colors. Awesome card.
