If you’ve been following me, you know that the Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2023 ended last Monday, but don’t worry, I still have some inspiration for you!
These products are for the New Year celebrations, but hey, I’m using them to create some amazing cards for milestone birthdays. I mean, who doesn’t love some fireworks to celebrate such as occasion?!

Gold and Navy are definitely a ‘glam’ combination and with some heat embossing, it really shines. The card bases are Night of Navy, with a layer of Gold Foil. The top layer is stamped with Versamark ink, Gold Emboss Powder applied and melted with my Heat Tool. In the space around them, I’ve stamped a smaller image to fill the space. A piece of Navy/Gold Glittered Ribbon is placed across the lower section of the card before adhering this layer to the card base. I added some Gold Sequins to the centre of each of the gold fireworks.

The sentiment is diecuts from the Wanted to Say dies, using Adhesive-backed Gold Glimmer card and Night of Navy on top. This finer piece is adhered with Tombo Multipurpose Glue, which I’ve found is the best product when adding on Glimmer paper. These are popped up on dimensionals. I plan to add the milestone number below the ‘Celebrate’ when the time comes.
Thank you to Frenciestamps.com for the inspiration!
