Birthday Girl......


Morning all! After yesterday's standard card I'm back with an extended gatefold. Normally a gatefold card has a split front, but on this extended card the fronts are z-folds, in that each of the front panels is folded back on itself- you can see it quite clearly in the photo. To make this card I used A3 cardstock but you could use two C5 cards adhered together.
The papers are Dovecraft Springtime A4 and were used to cover the front and inside back. The image was cut from lilac glittercard shadowed with white cardstock. The image had fairy wings (she's supposed to be the tooth fairy) but I cut them off. She was then adhered to a scalloped oval with foam pads. The scalloped oval was then adhered to the front of the card. A bow, a couple of floral arrangements and three teeny candy dots (made by punching circles from original candy dots with the large hole on the Cropodile, then re-shaped) adorn the oval.

Inside the card, another scalloped oval holds the 'Birthday Girl' sentiment, also cut from glittercard.
Carts used:
Girl with gift (tooth fairy)& scalloped ovals-A Child's Year
Plain ovals- George
'Birthday Girl'- StoryBook
Thanks for looking!
