Birthday card.

Now that Amanda has received her birthday card I can finally show it. This is called an eclipse card. Why it's called that I don't know. You print two layers of the exact same picture. The top layer has slits cut out of it and you can see part of the layer below.



Here's a closer look. I used foam tape between the layers to give it a little more depth. Oh and the picture was part of a free download I got from Creative Fabrica. It was a selection of birth month flower.




 I also did a copy of the flowers on the inside.


 I cut down an envelope to make a little pocket to hold the cash that I included in the card. I did a search online for the inside sentiment and I found the perfect one.

What a lovely sentiment inside! And the card is so unusual, I have never seen one like it. Kind of like a trick of the eye.
