Mon Amour Birthday Card


Today I'm sharing a card I made for my granddaughters birthday.  Its hard to see but the white roses have been stickled and the red roses have been covered with glossy accents. 
On the inside, I double matted both sides and added added some stickles to the butterfly trim.   
Thank you for stopping by and having a peek.  Until next time, happy crafting!  Hugs ~ Dawna  

Gate Fold Birthday Card




 
Hi Friends,  Here's a fun and funky masculine gate fold birthday card I created for my grandson.  I really loved the rustic wooden theme these simple papers created.  I used basic kraft cardstock to create the base and framed up the wooden papers with dark brown and light blue.  I used Prima's chalk paint in robins egg to randomly distress the card inside and out.   For a closure, I popped up a square piece of corrugated cardboard and added a Tim Holtz latch.  For this card, I decided to decorate the inside as well.   Here's a peek: 

The ruler paper makes a great background to the sentiment and I love how a bit of zigzag sewing really makes a card pop.  I've had a hard time finding a style that my youngest grandson really likes and this one was a big hit!    Thanks for dropping by and having a peek.   Hugs ~ Dawna

Hello Friend Birthday Card

Hi Friends, Using Graphic 45's Botanical Tea paper collection, here's a sweet nature inspired birthday card I created for my friend Heather.  This collection is an older line, but the images and color palette are so classic, they will remain a favorite of mine for a long time.  Thanks for dropping by and having a peek.  Hugs ~ Dawna
