70th Celebrations

Here's another recent make using a pre-coloured LOTV image which was matted and layered onto Spellbinder circles. The butterflies on the right-hand side were cut using Tonic Butterflies & Blooms - Ringlet Rest.

The ribbon, fabric flower and gems were from stash. The flower centre is a pretty enamelled butterfly brad which I think came from The Works. The sentiment is from a Hunkydory kit which was a magazine freebie. Numbers cut using my Cuttlebug Olivia Alphabet dies.

Pop-Up Book Birthday Card

So, this is the card I made for my Mum's birthday. I had seen a beautiful card on Jules'wonderful blog 'Always With a Heart' and wanted to have a go at this fold myself. I'm pleased with my effort but I will attach my ribbons differently next time- as per Jules' example - as it's really tricky to get the bow looking nice the way I did it!  Link to Jules' card Here.

I used my new papers from Lili of the Valley - 3 different designs. The die-cut oval is a Cheery Lynn design which I added tiny pearls to and finished off with a Hunkydory sentiment. The letters were cut using Spellbinders Donnas Alphas.

Inside view

Inside the card is decorated down each side with Spellbinders borders which have tiny pearls attached. (Bit difficult to see but they are there).
