It is my friend's daughter's second birthday next month and I have been busy making her a birthday card. Last year I did a wall hanging with cd's and this year she has an accordion style book made with the Nestabilities I have been playing with in readiness for my demonstration for Oyster Stamps. Tracy kindly gave me some to play with and I sneaked this card in for Chloe.
I have used the elf/gnome(?) stamps again but this time used all of them as I wanted enough pages to be able to spell out the word "birthday" (at the bottom of each page is a diecut letter). (At the top diecut letters spell out "happy".)
I originally thought I could put lots of embellishments on but then realised that tiny hands can pull things off and tiny things can go in tiny mouths. Not a good idea!
So I had to diecut and punch out some tiny shapes and stick them on (firmly I hope).
The front of the card has "Chloe" and the number "2" in diecut letters and numbers on. Each page is backed with a teal coloured cardstock shape and there is a striped satin ribbon connecting each page.Am sure she will like it - know her mum will!
