A Special Ladies 60th Birthday


Last minute card for a lady who turns 60 this month.
I cut the birthday hat image out using a sizzix sizzlets die and cut from two coloured card stock - was a bit fiddle but switched the cut section to create two hats - one pink with brown inserts and one brown with pink inserts. 
The muffin cake was cut out using Sizzix Original die - Cupcake & ice cream - the icing part of the cupcake was edged using the colour 'London Fog' Momento ink pad.
Using Peachy Keen face stamps I added a cheerful face to  the cake and stamped the mouth piece again onto red card stock, the mouth was cut out and glued into place on the main image.

The cake and hat were fixed together and mounted onto white card stock. This was then matted onto corresponding coloured card. 
Using 'Stampin Up' backing paper of dots and striped card the base of the card was covered, a decorative border was cut from white card stock and fixed at the lower part of the card. Contrasting ribbon was fixed across the top of the decorative strip to cover join.
A message was printed and fixed to the base of each card. Lets hope Shirley had a great Birthday.
