Blue Birthday

Evening all!

 

Just a quick card to share tonight, this is a card I made for my brother's birthday - it is yet another variation and adaptation I've made on my embossed star card design. If you are a follower of my blog and pop by fairly frequently you'll know that this card evolved from a Christmas design in 2012 and has changed and morphed into my go to Male birthday card. Evolution #3 is this:

On this occasion I cut the base card in a diagonal, mounted two darker blue triangles on the front and inside panel and mounted the base square in the centre so it looked like a whole when closed. I cut white card out, cut out a star using my Nestabilities Dies and embossed the remaining frame in cuttlebug's spots and dots folder. I cut a second smaller star out of white cardstock also.

 

I mounted the embossed panel onto a lighter blue cardstock, added a blue/green/grey organza ribbon on the one side  and mounted the smaller star on foam pads in the space. I finished the card with a few crystals and stickles galore on the smaller star.

 

I would like to enter this card into: Allsorts Challenge - Free and Easy and Simons Says - Ice Inspiration



 

I'll be back tomorrow with another Crafty Catz DT card, but until then, happy crafting!
