Happy Birthday - cute mouse in silhouette 7x5in card - 365 day challenge
Hi Craft addicts!
Today's handmade card is a cute Birthday card that could be sent to anyone you like!
- I used the mouse silhouette Paper Cuts Die from Creative Expressions and cut it out using Lynda Chapman's Black Card.
- I created the sunrise background on some smooth cardstock using Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks (Oranges, Reds and Yellows) or you can used watercolour paints to colour the background too!
- I then used some PVA glue to attach the silhouette die cut on to it and edged it with a black alcohol marker.
- I rounded the corners of a 7" x 5" black pearlescent card (which are now discontinued from Create & Craft) - I used a punch from Hunkydory's Prism range.
- I then took a piece of Orange and white dotty paper, rounded the corners and attached a strip of black card to the middle of it (approximately 4.75" x 1") and then stuck both to the front of the card.
- I used some thin foam pads to attach the topper panel to the centre of the card to give it some height.
- Finally, I used a Happy Birthday sentiment topper (I think it is an old one from Craftwork Cards) but any one would do and again attached it with some foam pads.
