Large all occasion card with a coffee and musical theme


 I made this card for DH for his upcoming birthday!!  He loves his coffee and music is one of the things he enjoys most!!  I found the musical frame and the coffee collage on Pixabay and combined them in Corel Draw.  I laser printed it on white cardstock and watercoloured it to coordinate with the background collage I had created.  My background was pieced using scraps of decorative paper which I taped together on the back.  A large piece with the fleurs de lis to which I added a dark strip and then five more small pieces to have it big enough for my large kraft card which I created to fit in one of the large envelopes from my stash.  I added the turquoise strip to the background using two brown brads and flagged the end.  I added the background to my card front and then added the fussy cut and distressed coffee collage over it using 3D foam tape.  Totally had fun!!!  Therese
