Happy Birthday gate fold card

Another gate fold card made using the Gemini Daisy Delight dies from Crafter's Companion.  It's not really as easy to put together as it perhaps looks - the result is a simple card with added stickers and a piece of embossed silver matt card inside with the addition of the birthday sentiment piece.

This time I started with an A5 piece of pearlescent gold card which I scored to make the gate fold ... it was more accommodating for the linking pieces of die cuts than the larger card I made and showed yesterday.

Happy Birthday Granddaughter

A commissioned card for a granddaughter who plays the oboe. It was a difficult one to photograph as the background was a lovely acetate with butterflies stuck on to a piece of purple mirror card. I'd run this through my xyron so that it stuck well without showing any adhesive. I created the topper digitally with the help of a couple of cliparts, adding the sentiment, printing out and matting on to purple glittered card. I then randomly added some gems.

The lovely acetate and coordinating card came from Crafter's Companion, all mounted on to a lilac card blank. Purple is my favourite crafting colour so I really enjoyed making this card.
