Celebrating with friends

I thought I would make a card for a friend's Grandson for his birthday. I used the Spellbinders - Say Cheese Classic Pooh Collection - Etched Dies - Pooh and Friends Silhouette, but I couldn't decide what paper to use for the background, so I made 3 cards.

I used some striped designer paper to resemble the sun setting sky and die cut the images on black card.

I die cut the image twice and layered them together for some dimension and added the black frame.

On this one I have used designer paper with part of a tree and a sky background.

I made the inside a bit different in each card by reducing the die cut characters.

I really liked this designer paper and thought I would make the same style card in a pink colour theme.

Thanks for stopping by.

Little Dinosaur

I was asked to make a card for a boy who was turning 4 and liked Dinosaurs.

For the front on the card, I found this red rubber stamp in my stash of older stamps. The front panel measures 12cm x 13cm with the 1cm tab panel to be glued onto the inside panels.

For the inside I created a folded step panel and added the die cut dinosaur and number. Previously I had made a smaller version of the step card for this one the step panel measures 20 cm x 12 cm. Along the 20cm side, score at 4, 8, 12 and then on the 12cm side measure 4cm in from each end and cut from 4 to 12 and from 8 to 16.

Add the decorating layers and the die cut dinosaur and number. The black square in the middle is perfect for a sentiment.
