A Funky Home Made Birthday Card.
22 Feb 2010
Maybe I'm showing my age her but when I made this card the word "funky" just sprang to mind! Is that a word that's even in use today? Pprobably not, but it does me fine!

This Home Made Birthday Card would make a great card for a young teenage girl.
The card developed around the rubber embellishment which was another of the ones I got from the Manchester Show.
I decided to glue the embellishment to the inside back of the card - obviously in normal circumstances this wouldn't be seen but I used a Zig Zag Circle Nestability to cut an aperture in the front of the card.
The front of the card has been covered with a Red and Pink Small Checks paper from Cardmaking Ideas.
I've had a sheet of pale pink peel offs for absolutely ages and never seem to have found the right card for them but I thought they might be just right for this one.

I used the Happy Birthday sentiment and then decided that the card looked a little bare so I stuck stars from the same peel off sheet around the embellishment on the inside of the card.
In the photgraph on the right you can see what the card looks like when opened up.
Anyway I hope you like this one - it's easy to make and just that bit different.
