A Birthday Card for my Great Niece

Today, I am sharing the card I made for one of my great niece's who shares the 

same birthday as me...although we're sixty years apart in age!

I lightly coloured the cloud panel with Tumbled Glass Distress ink,
before matting and layering it all to put the card together. I glued the mini tab onto
 pink card and cut around carefully to create a mat.

Die-Namics - Mini Tabs Foursome and Pierced Rectangles
Spellbinders Nestabilities - Circles and Scalloped Circles

Darice Embossing Folder - Clouds

1st Birthday Card

Welcome to my new follower Liz. Please do pop over to her blog and 

take a look at her lovely makes.

Today I have a birthday card to share which I made for the little girl next door
who celebrated her first birthday over the weekend.
We had a lovely time at her birthday party too!

I found the idea for the shape of the card on Pinterest, which led me here on to
Rainy Day Creations blog, where Susan has very kindly shared the
measurements and a drawing of the card.

Once measured and cut, I embossed the front of the card, added the sentiment,  

Seren's name and the banner using black mirri card.

As Seren is a Welsh name meaning 'star', I thought it would be nice to add some 

tiny diamantés stars to the banner.

The items I have used are:-

Cuttlebug Embossing Folder - Polka Dots

Spellbinders Nestabilities - Circles and Scalloped circles

Memory Box - Simple Banner

QuicKutz Sunshine Mini Alphabet

Sentiment and circle stamp were free gifts with a craft magazine.
