16th Birthday Card


I made this for my friends 'little' girl, she is sweet 16 on 12th. First I used word to print out the numbers as large as I could (for an A5 card) then I traced onto card, cut out and covered the card with pretty paper, then I stamped and embossed gold flowers onto the paper. Next thing I did was to loose the '6' (don't ask, it still hasn't turned up !!!) anyway then it was all edged in peeloffs as the cutting out of the hole in the '6' wasn't exactly perfect.... Anyway, originally I was going to mount them onto a black glossy card, then last night in bed I decided to put the numbers on an acetate rap. The acetate already has gold butterflies on, and I added a few gold flower peel offs. I then wrapped this around a plain black card and put some girly paper inside with shoes on it. *** long explanation for fairly simple card - LOL ***
