Champagne Celebration!


This card was for a commission, and the brief was Champagne and NO pink! I decided to use this fab champers bottle tri-fold card which fits the bill I think! I cut the card out at 6 1/4" to fit a C5 envelope. Although it looks green the bottle is actually the same colour as the letters & numbers! It's cobalt blue mirri card and I love it! I traced around the bottle onto the blue mirri and cut it out & adhered it to the bottle on the card. I cut out the trimmings in silver mirri. I added '1959' to the bottle label and a layered flower and ribbon trim. 'JO' & '50' are cut from blue glitter card and adhered with foam pads. The happy birthday is cut from blue mirri and adhered flat. I added a personal insert to finish. I am assured that the customer was thrilled with it!
Carts used:
Champagne card- Wild Card
Jo & 50- Lyrical Letters (Jumbo Font)
Happy Birthday-Wild Card (the phrase is cut in one piece but I chopped it in two and trimmed it)
Thanks for dropping by!
