Beautiful Birthday - die cutting, alcohol marker, slider easel

 

Using Stampin' Up dies, stamps, papers, and ribbon, I created this slider easel birthday card.

I think all the Stampin' Up is retired:

• Painted Glass / Stained Glass stamps and dies 
• Perennial Essence DSP
• Dapper Denim
• Tempting Turquoise
• Whisper White
• Dapper Denim ruched ribbon

The metallic cardstocks are Sizzix opulent. The colouring is with Copic markers. The black ink is from Kraftin' Kimmie.

I originally thought to have the graphite pearl over the DSP but it was too dark so I used some of the items I die-cut on the inside to dress it up and tie it all together. I also used some as the inset in the central window on the front for a little bit of detail.

I didn't intend the pull tag to be quite so hidden, but I do like that it's a "secret" gem.
