Thank you for all your amazing Birthday cards last week, it was lovely to see so many gorgeous creations!! As it is the first Friday of the month we have our specialy monthly challenge for you with a $50 voucher for
Simon Says Stamp for the lucky winner!!! You'll love this challenge, it is great fun to do and creates a stunning card!!! Our featured stamper
Dena has done a brilliant tutorial for her "Tent Card" for you all to follow. I have to admit I didn't follow it exactly though, as I used one folded piece of card rather than two fastened together as I didn't want to have any fasteners at the top of my papers. I bought these stunning papers especially to make a birthday card for my cousin's little girl who will be 6 shortly. They are Kaisercraft Flutterby and I'm going to have to get some more as I used nearly the whole two sheets on this!!
I have used Sweet Tilda from the winter kit, coloured with distress inks and I have added some stickles to the white trim on her dress. I have left parts of the papers to protrude into my cut out and also added some swirls with my EK success punch (finally managed to not use it on every card but it resurfaced for this one LOL). I have stickled all the printed swirls on the paper and added pearls here and there where there were dots in the pattern. The pearls are from the Hobby House. I also added a bow using chiffon ribbon from my stash.
I have used a Prima hydrangea, blossom flowers and tiny roses to embellish the card and more swirls! The cute little heart pin is from the Hobby House too. The 3D butterfly I cut from one of the papers and added stickles and some pearls.
A close up of those gorgeous butterflies and swirls.
On the back of the card I used part of the scrapbook side of one of the papers that had this gorgeous journalling circle on it - perfect to write a message on!!!
I hope you can join us this week and can pop over to the challenge blog for more inspiration from the rest of the team, they're gorgeous as always! Hope you like it and thanks for looking!
