Birthday Wishes Mum

Although these layered cards aren't my preferred style of cardmaking, my mum likes them so I bought this 'Best Mum Ever!' topper set to make her birthday card.


To make this card I used:
     7" x 7" white matt card blank
     Hunkydory 'Best Mum Ever!' topper kit
     Woodware heart punch
     Silver mirri card

I cut a piece of silver mirri so it was slight smaller than the front of the card and then layered a piece of the backing card onto it before attaching it to the card blank.  The backing card had got a white strip across the bottom which looked a little plain, so I attached the patterned strip from the die cut sheet across the card.  I removed the layered die cut pieces and used foam pads to build the image.  This was then attached to the centre of the card.  I attached a couple of pieces of foam tape across the bottom of the sentiment to build it to the same depth as the floral topper and attached it to the lower edge.  Two small hearts were punched from silver mirri and attached to the top of the card with foam pads.

I am entering the following challenges:
     AAA Birthday Card Challenge - Anything Birthday Goes
     Daisy Chain Challenge - Birthday
     Love to Craft - Anything Goes

This is a beautiful dimensional card Kath, and the silver mirri matted on the background pieces and the two punched hearts bring it all together, and then the wonderful flower pieces added to the shelf as well as the 'Mum' are all so pretty. I'm sure your Mum will have loved this. x
