Pie Birthday

 

IC1085 - Country Door - Inspiration

For this card, I was inspired by the pie in the scene, so I reached for my favorite Spellbinders pie die set and cut all of the layers to build a warm, homey pie. I added a couple of lemon pieces along with the flower and leaves to give the arrangement a bright, cheerful touch.

I pulled out several papers from the stash I am working to use up and trimmed them down, adding black highlight layers behind each panel before placing everything on a white card base. The contrast of the black accents against the patterned papers creates a crisp and lively backdrop.

I die cut a few black stars to complement the layers and popped up two of the star and circle pieces to add extra interest. After assembling the pie, lemons, and flower, I added dimensionals behind the pie and finished it with a soft shimmer of Stickles.

To complete the card, I scattered several gems and popped up the birthday sentiment for a final bit of sparkle and lift.
