5 today.....



Here's a summery little card for you! I wanted to make a 'numeral' card for a child's birthday and this floral paper from Creative Cardmaking mag fitted the bill nicely. I chose number 5 (don't know why!), cut it from white card and paper, then adhered both pieces together. I enhanced the 5 with a dressmaker's wheel and added a layered bloom and 3 cute flutterbys. The card was covered in yellow floral paper matted onto blue cardstock, a green spotted panel, and a border which was decorated with my fave MS punch. I wrapped ribbon around the border and added a bow. This was adhered to the card front with foam tape and the no 5 adhered over it. 'Today' was cut from blue glittercard and adhered flat to the spotty panel. The inside was decorated with a simple punched border and 'Happy Birthday' cut from blue card.
