Happy Birthday David.....


It was my nephew David's birthday yesterday and I made him this tri-fold card. David plays guitar like his dad, my brother Andrew, and they often gig together at one of their local pubs, so I thought that this record and guitar theme would be appropriate. I used some fab paper that I got from CraftsULove on special offer a while ago. It's by Imaginisce and called Live Loud. I used a Fiskars punch on the diagonal edge and 3 different papers. The LP was made from black mirri with an 'oil-on-water' finish, with a patterned paper 'label'. I added an embossed guitar and some punched stars.
'David' was cut from orange mirri card, embossed with a Tim Holtz embossing folder the adhered with foam pads. 'Happy Birthday' was cut from more orange mirri shadowed with black mirri, again adhered with foam pads. I added a plain sentiment panel to the inside of the card.
