Happy Birthday Donna

This was made as last years card, then I realised last year was a big year for Donna so quickly had to make her a new special card and put this one away.

Quick and simple - Layering, die cutting and stamping

Materials required for this card are:

Designer Series Paper: *ever eden

Dies: radiating stitches (1), sentiment silhouettes, timeless arrangements

Ink: *soft succulent 

Stamp Sets: *eden's garden, charming sentiments

Accessories: *open weave

 * = no longer available, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest

1. Start with a thick basic white base card 14.5 x 21 scored at 10.5, dsp 14 x 10, and 2 basic white 9.5 x 5.5 & 9 x 2
2. stamp the sentiment and image on the 2 pieces of basic white
3. die cut these pieces plus the floral borders using the vellum, one green and one plain
4. cut 4 cm off the bottom of the dsp, turn it round and reposition it using tape
5. add a strip of ribbon across the dsp seam and adhere at the back
6. adhere the dsp to the base card using liquid glue, with another small piece of the ribbon, tie a faux bow
7. adhere the floral borders (cut to be individual) to the back of the floral image using glue dots
8. attach the floral image and sentiment using dimensional pads
