I was fortunate enough to have a mini kit to play with
- and I showed you my April Calendar at the beginning of the month...
Today I am showing you a BIrthday card...
To start I printed two copies of a paper from the collection on a piece of A4 card. I scored and cut them out with tabs as shown.
I stuck them together to make two slip covers joined in the middle.
(I could then slide tags into these.)
I added strips of more paper threaded with ribbon along the bottom edge of both sides.
I used a punch to cut the holes for this.
Next I made the tags - using more elements from the collection - more ribbon and silver Happy Birthday stickers.
I slid these inside the slip covers...

I loved the first project. The colors and layers
ReplyDeleteare so pretty. Look like a summer day.
Then I saw that card - fantastic.
the tattered look is great and the work with all of
the ribbons is wonderful. I'll be using that idea.
thanks for sharing.
