Happy Birthday Wishes

I sent two cards to Simple cards and Papercraft magazine this is the other one that didn't get published,so I thought I would share it with you.
Firstly l started with a 6x6''kraft card blank,then I cut a piece of striped paper just smaller then the card it's self, from the top of the paper I measured half away across and cut down to the middle of the paper,I rolled back the paper to form a V shape and put a piece of cream lace 3 quarters of away down the paper, then adhered it to my card,I arranged my free floral die-cut flowers on to my card, and stuck  them down with 3D glue. then I stamped a justrite sentiment on to Kraft card then matted on to a piece of card just a shade bigger, put the flower die at either end of the sentiment to decorate, then stuck down with 3D glue, to finish I decorated with buttons and pearls.

For your special day

My first blog entry is a card i sent to Simple cards and Paper craft magazine, which was picked to feature in the Readers Gallery section, this card was made with the free floral die on the front of the previous magazine.

Firstly to make the card I started with a 6x6" scallop card blank.I matted the card front with 2 pieces of coordinating paper, before attaching it to my card i machine stitched around the edge then adhered it to my card blank, then die-cut a border and cut a banner shape out of paper. I machine stitched around it and Stamped a sentiment on to it, then 3D Glued them on to my card. I Cut flowers and leaves from the free floral die and arranged them on to my card, then 3D glued them on to my card. Finally i decorated the centres with buttons and a paperclip on the banner. I really enjoyed making this card and this inspired me to start this blog.

Thank you for viewing this page and Happy Crafting.
