Birthday card featuring a serendipity background and a large tag with a greeting and some watercoloured candles

Another July card for the special occasions in my family!!  I started with a large kraft card and then created a large serendipity background using scraps of paper in coordinating colours.  Once it was dry, I trimmed it to size and ran my pattern tracing wheel on all of its edges to create some texture then adhered it to my card. I die cut a brown tag and them embossed it with the "subtle texture" 3D embossing folder (SU).  Perfect!!  I trimmed yet another piece of the white cardstock I had stamped with the candles (SU) to the width for my tag and then tore the top and bottom.  I stamped the greeting, watercoloured the candles, added texture with my pattern tracing wheel and then a little tab with a tiny brad.  To finish it off I added a kraft hole reinforcement then tied on a length of gold/ivory fiber.  I mounted my tag to the card using 3D foam tape.  It is so nice to have time to be cardmaking!!          Therese
