A special card for a special person!!! I started with a large black card that fit in an envelope from my stash. I created the large birthday cake by layering decorative paper strips onto coordinating cardstock and trimming the edge with scalloped decorative scissors. I glued them to each other, added dots in the scallops using a clear glitter pen then mounted it to the back of the cake plate (
Vecteezy) which I had printed and fussy cut. I found the candle (
Beccy's Place) in my stash of images, watercoloured it to coordinate and then adhered it to the back of the cake. Added a bit of clear glitter to the flame and the yellow stripes. I added the two strips of ribbon to the left hand side of the background paper before mounting it to the black card. I watercoloured the greeting (
Birds Cards) which was laser printed and punched with a large oval punch (SU). I mounted it over the ribbon using 3D foam tape and then did the same with the large cake. Therese
