Happy Birthday

Hello \crafters!  I started today's card by cutting the Floral Harmony Cover Plate twice.  I cut both of them with two pieces of white card.  The top piece of card cuts all the ways through and the bottom one is basically embossed with the design but the outside lines cut through.  I used Distress inks to colour the design on both of them, using Victorian Velvet, Fossilized Amber and Forest Moss.  I glued the other die cut on top of both of them, then added mounting foam to the backs and attached them together on another piece of white card.  I cut the Birthday  Shadowed Stacked Sentiment in black and added it to the join line of the two dies.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  9 1/2"  in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue Beautiful card such a good idea to cut the floral plate using two pieces of card to use the embossed detail as a guide for colouring
