60th Birthday Card


I used a piece of Hunkydory's patterned cardstock for the bottom half of this card which I had left over from one of the kits.  I added a plain piece of card for the top half which I embossed with the 'Birds and Swirls' Cuttlebug embossing folder and coloured over with Spun Sugar Distress Ink.  I added a border across to hide the join between the two pieces of card.

I used my favourite Spellbinder's set - Majestic Labels 25 for the main topper.  I backed the frame onto a piece of silver mirror card and added a '60' in the middle which I covered over using Cosmic Shimmer PVA pearls glue in 'Silver Sparkle'.

The flowers are stamped and embossed with silver embossing powder and come from Woodware's 'Poinsettia Corner' stamp set.  I coloured them using Spun Sugar distress ink so they look like more of a generic flower.  I added some Silver Sparkle PVA into the centres of the flowers.

I finished off by adding a few pearls into the corners using Cosmic Pearl PVA.
