Celebrate Your Birthday

Outside





When I think of spring, I think yellow and orange and flowers and butterflies so I tried  to incorporate those in this spring BD card.  I saw a video on this type of card and have been wanting to try making one.  It is not difficult, but it is time consuming  and you need a good paper cutter. If you want to give it a try,you can see the how to video HERE . The flowers from IO are basically flat except the spiral ones, but they are small enough that I will be able to mail this with a sheet of heavy card stock on top to protect it.













Inside






I will enter this in he following challenges.

  6. After seeing what you created, I have to check out that video. It is not only Gorgeous on the outside, but the inside is too amazing. I like to make these very fancy cards sometimes, but I am always worried about mailing them. Just cranking out all of those dies is am awesome task. But then look what you did for Christmas. I am still blown away with my dies.
