Happy Birthday

Hi bloggers!  Yes another Penelope card!  I started with the Brambled Rose embossing folder to add some texture to the coconut white background.  I used the Zigzag borders to cut two white strips and one Iris card strip.  I glued them on to a piece of black card, then used the zigzag borders on either side to cut them out leaving a thin black border around them.  I added them across the bottom of the card.  I used the Happy Birthday sentiment cut in Iris card and added to a white shadow backing.  I glued it onto the zigzag borders on the right side.  For the focal element on the top of the card, I cut the Penelope die top layer out of white, the middle out of Iris card and backed it with a black backing.  I added it onto the larger backing which I cut in white.  I cut the Betsy die in white and layered it on top of the Penelope die with the centre stamped with my sentiment in black.  The card was completed with white, black and Iris card mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  8 1/2"  in size.  All for now,
Sue x
