Happy Birthday


This is the birthday card I made for my sister this week. Purple is her favourite colour and so I thought this colour scheme would work for her card. The image is decoupaged from Katy Sue's "Fabulous Shoes" CD-ROM. I do like the cutting out of decoupage, it's very relaxing. The only problem is that I end up with lots of little bags of cut out images and then never get around to sticking them together. I used a create and craft die, from their couture creations range I think it is from the "Enchanted Escapes" collection. The grey pearl background card is embossed with a Celtic flower embossing folder from creative expressions and was matted up with matching purple card. The sentiment is lili of the valley and again I used the enchanted escape dies to frame it. A little faux stitching and a couple of pearls to finish it off.
