70th birthday Card for Mam



This is an A4 card. I have used the Tattered Lace essentials book die to make this card. I have cut alternate dies with red and white. I have embossed the white pieces with a Xcut A4 embossing folder. The ovals are cut with Crafts Too dies. The numbers are Tattered Lace dies. The flourish is a Cheery Lynn die. The Happy Birthday is cut with a Joy die. I have printed the sentiment before die cutting with an oval, I have decorated the card with paper roses, ribbon and flat backed pearls from my stash.
