I had a card request for a birthday card for a Priest.
I struggle with these as you automatically lean towards a religious card
but they would probably love to receive a 'birthday card'.
So this is what I made.
How I made this card
1. Using an a5 card as your base cut tranquil tide 5 6/8" x 8"
Add a piece of dsp 5 5/8" x 7 7/8"
2. Mark 2" at either side, top and bottom, and add tear and tape.
Stick ribbon across both these sections.
3. Using circle dies, cut largest in tranquil tide, next size down
in whisper white and 2 sizes more down in whisper white.
4. On second largest stamp design using soft suede,
working round the circle till you are happy.
5. On smallest circle stamp your quote using grapefruit grove
and stamp two small butterflies in soft suede.
6. Adhere largest circle in place, using dimensionals add
next circle and finally the smallest.
Finish with a small knot of ribbon as above.
7. Cut two rectangles in tranquil tide. Type up your sentiment
and name using hex code for tranquil tide and make sure they measure no more
than 6cm x 1 cm. Print and cut out using the smaller rectangle die.
Layer these together and adhere to your card, top and bottom.
8. Stamp out 4 small butterflies, punch and colour using
grapefruit grove and tranquil tide markers.
Stick in place using wet glue and add bodies and antenna.
