For my sister I wanted to make a special card, as it is her 22nd birthday in a couple of days. Truth be told I have been planning her card, and present for a good couple of weeks now.
The patterned papers used are PaperMania’s Amethyst Infusion. The Happy Birthday sentiment was stamped using the Perfectly Clear: Garden Box Set layered on purple and white cardstock, mounted on 3D pads.
The top part here is the back, of the front of the card. I made a large pocket, but made a very small tag. In hindsight I would have made this tag bigger!
The tag has the edges inked in purple on the front, and inking on the back all over. I added a purple flower eyelet and tied through it some purple coordinating ribbon. I stuck on some pastel mini heart buttons and a tiny ribbon bow. It contains my sisters birth information i.e. Full Name, Date of Birth, Weight etc.
I added a photo of Louise shortly after her birth, covering her “bits” with a flower punch (SU!’s Boho Blossoms). I added an inked eyelet border. To embellish further, I made a 3D layered flower with a button and a 3D “small wonder” sentiment.
The bottom part I trimmed down two photos of my sister now. I then embellished with buttons and ribbon. I cut out a daisy from the patterned paper I’ve been using to add a little extra to the photo.
The “Family” page is the other side of the “now photos” of Louise.
I firstly layered a piece of patterned paper, then using Circle punches, a Scallop Circle punch, I put photos of my little family and mounted them onto white cardstock in Scallop Circles and squares with the corners rounded.
Overtop is a white tissue paper square, stuck down with the purple eyelet border. I stamped on the “Family” stamp.
The happy birthday page has a sentiment and flower stamped onto white cardstock, mounted onto the base black card.
Leaving a margin to the lhs, I glued on some flower sequins from my Daughters’ art and craft room!
