Surfs up Birthday card

Made this card for my son who is a keen surfboarder.

I printed it from Cards Creations Sue Jansons You're Never Too Old.
I made it on yellow card so it looked like sand then cut the sentment out and attached it with foam pads so the surf board stood proud

October 25th

This one is made made using white card,
satin ribbon
bouquet topper
glitter card

I measured an oblong piece of white card and folded it in half and glued up each side and along the bottom to make a pocket, I then used a large circle punch to punch out the half circle, put a piece of satin ribbon all round the pocket and put a bouquet topper on the top to hide the ribbon join.

Cut a piece of glitter card to fit in the pocket making sure it finishes at the top of the pocket, print out your message on some paper cut and put on the glitter card.
Tuck finished card into pocket.

This one is made in a cheque book style.
I used lace patterned card and measured it to a cheque book size and cut a back and a front,
I then took some thing white card and measured half an inche in then perforated down the short side.
Threaded a peice of blue satin ribbon through the holes, printed out the couples names, stuck that on the front of the card and put small peel off dots in the middle of each flower.
