Die cut flower cluster


I thought I would try a different layout for this card, it fits inside a business size envelope. Instead of having the classic fold in half I made the front only half the size of the back, so that you can see the happy birthday die cut while the card is closed. The Happy Birthday is cut 3 times and layered together for some dimension. 



Inside I have used the Flower Pivot Panels for a surprise element once you open the card.


On the front of the card I have used several die cut flowers

Supplies 
Karen Burniston dies 1160 Flower Pivot Panel
MFT fancy Flourish and flower dies.

Center Tower Gate fold


This card was inspired by a Sam Calcott tutorial. It is called the Centre Tower Gatefold Card.



The card measures 7 x 5, I chose this size so that I could add the sentiment panel from the paper pack.


It looks great on display, however I still had trouble popping out that tower, even after adding a acetate strip in the back. The card was easy to make, I may try it again but in a smaller size.
