birthday card

I made this card this week ...

This is the front of the card..

and here is how I made the INSIDES...

First I made a multi layered platform..

I then cut a vase shape which I decorated with doodling and a punched edge.

I cut lots and lots of leaves and flowers from Basic Grey, and started to attach them to the 3 layered platform, plus some on the background.. I doodled around the edges of the flowers and leaves..

I then decided the background was too plain, and carefully peeled everything from the card. Took a fresh card and added a vellum background, before reattaching the platforms and flowers.

I wrapped the flowers in a little coloured tissue paper and added the bow around all 3 layers.

It took all evening lol it was very fiddly to cut everything out, but it turned out ok I think.

It does fold flat...ish...well enough to still fit in the envelope, though a little bulky.
