birthday card



A friend had a birthday recently and this is the card I made for her.  I started off as I usually do with a dictionary page and painted over it. I also had an old photo (the dark blue background) that I tore up and glued to the card. I just love the way it turned out, though I had no real idea of what the end result would be - I just love that.

Here is a list of the supplies I used:
  • acrylic paint (Golden Fluid Acrylic)
  • chipboard
  • dictionary pages
  • embossing powder (for bees and bird cage)
  • gesso (white)
  • mod podge (matte)
  • sewing pattern (for flowers and at bottom of card)
  • silver ink
  • stamps
