It’s Your Birthday Card

1

Cut a 17x12cm piece of white cardstock and lay the die facedown on the panel facedown. Draw around the shape approximately 1cm from the outer edge.

2

Colour the marked area of the card with Distress Ink, blending the colours as you work.

3

Ink the flower stems using Purple Hydrangea and Turquoise Gem inks and stamp over the inked background as shown.

4

Stamp the same flower stems again using Onyx Black ink, offsetting the images from the coloured flowers.

5

Die-cut the butterflies from an 18cm square of white cardstock. Tape the die in place and die-cut. Save the small butterflies to use as embellishments.

6

Line up the panel onto the card front using 3D foam tape on the reverse, making sure to add small pieces around the edges of the die-cut, so you can see the scenes through it. Attach over the inked and stamped panel and add the sentiment and embellishments to finish.
