I was really quite pleased with how this card came out. The lace type card topper was a free file from Birds cards. The flowers and leaves were cut with a die then inked and shaped. The larger flower is 3 layers and the smaller ones are 2.
I have to give you a closer look at the flowers before I let you go. I'm not quite sure why I used gems on two flowers and a pearl on the third but it is what it is.
The next birthday coming up is Wade's youngest son. His is on July 4th. I have some time before I need to get that one made.

Thanks. I was very pleased with how it came out
Thanks. Yes, I made the envelope :)
As for the flowers, I have an electronic cutting machine (my cricut) and then a manual die cutting machine. I have different shaped dies to cut with. I run the paper with the die on top through the machine and it cuts the paper. I'm horrible at explaining it but that will give me something to do a blog post about.
thank you
thanks
thanks, I really liked the look of the lace topper and I was pleased with how the flowers turned out
Well thank you. Can't say whether or not she'll hold on to the card or not but she did say she liked it
Thanks. I admit I am a bit proud of how it came out. Yep, I think I'm back. But I really don't want to try and get back into selling. I enjoy giving it away more.
Aww, thanks
Very pretty!! Love the envelope too!
Oh WOW...what a fantastic card. Anyone would be so excited to get one of those. Great, great, great job.
Gee, Ann! This is really beautiful...but from what I have seen that you do, I expected no less. I don't know why you used the gems and then a pearl, but I like it that way.
Coming in late, stunning results
Thank you.
Thanks. The biggest problem with a card like this is that I don't know if it would mail well. Having to have a box type envelop it probably would get a lot of rough handling.
Thank you so much
I still think this is one of the most beautiful cards!
