Today is my son-in-law’s birthday. I started his card with a bold birthday greeting die from The Greetery, appropriately named Make a Wish. I die cut the greeting in white and the shadow in black. Then I added two more layers of the shadow to give it some dimension.
The background panel was foiled in matte black foil with Pinkfresh Studio’s Stippled Plaid Press Plate. The foiling is quite subtle, but lovely, and doesn’t show up in the photo. I trimmed it down and then added it to a black card base before adding the sentiment with foam dots.
This is my second entry to the As You See It Challenge asking what cards, beside Christmas, do you make the most often. Hands down, it’s birthday cards.
Happy Birthday Wishes To Adam. This card had me immediately thinking baseball – I like the bold greeting/wish.

Hands down birthdays for me. I love that bold, dramatic sentiment. The foiled piece is so stylish and fits well with the classic black and white theme. Great card! Thanks for sharing it with us at As You See It. 🙂
