Phoebe


No 1 son is going to yet ANOTHER 18th birthday party today and this is the card that I made for him to take along. It's a bit of an unusual colour I suppose for a birthday card, but the image is eating a rather large box of choccies so .... Hello! Terry's Chocolate Orange!! I used 2 papers from the My Mind's Eye Magnolia 12x12 stack covering the front of the card with a brushed orange paper and a strip of orange flowered paper across the middle which I adhered onto a strip of brown card edged with a Martha Stewart punch. I didn't have any large brown flowers so I cut out a large brown dotty daisy from paper and added an orange bloom topped with a brown satin ribbon bow and fabric brad. I cut the name from polka dot paper and card and adhered it below the flowered strip with foam pads. The image was adhered to card to give it more substance and then cut out. She was adhered to the front of the card with foam pads. 3 blingy flowers (originally diamante but coloured brown with peel off pens) complete the card.
Carts used:
