Birthday Card For Mom

Hello crafty friends!

Today is my Mom's 91st birthday!

She is an amazing woman and one of the 

strongest and kindest people I know.

I wanted to make her a card, so I 

used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the 

Happy Birthday on black card stock.

I covered a scrap piece of white card stock with 

1" wide double sided tape, like Score Tape.

I pulled all the backing off the tape and stuck it to the

back side of the black piece so the sticky part was against the 

Happy Birthday cut out.

I sprinkled glitter over the sentiment,

the glitter stuck to the tape,

I shook off the extra and burnished it with 

my finger.  This helps to be sure it sticks and

gives it a nice shine.

You can see a little more of the shine in the 

picture below.

I punched out some flowers with a coordinating paper

and put "pearls" in the centers to finish off the front panel.

It was then adhered to a white card base.

This didn't turn out exactly as I had envisioned it,

but I do like it and hopefully she will too.

Thanks for stopping by today,

come again soon.

Until then, Happy Crafting!
