Happy Birthday

Hello crafters!  I started this card by cutting the Floral Symphony Cover Plate twice with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I used the embossed white card and coloured the images to match using alcohol ink markers.  Once coloured, I glued the black die cuts over the white coloured pieces.  Using my scissors, I cut away the solid areas next to the flowers on both of them.  I added mounting foam to the backs of both pieces, then added them to a larger piece of white card.  I left an open area for the sentiment between them.  I cut the Birthday Stacked Shadowed sentiment in black and glued it to the middle of the card.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7"  x  8" in size.  


All for now, Sue x
