Serendipity Stamps #8 - Centre Step Card



Hi all, I'm here with a card for this fortnight's challenge over at Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog.
We have the fabulous theme of making an easel card, they are very easy to make, and are an eye catching creation in amongst all your other cards!


 For my card I have used the fun Cupcake & Candle die set from Serendipity Stamps. I die cut the image in Silver mirri card, and Rich Razzleberry, then picked out the pieces from the silver die cut, and glued over the coloured card.

I then set about creating my card base in Wisteria Wonder card. I used the instructions you can find HERE.

I then cut some party themed paper from Wild Rose Studios Bella paper stack, and matted with some Rich Razzleberry card and added to my card base.


To the front I added some Guipure Lace topped with some Satin Pleat in Plum, both from The Ribbon Reel.

I added the Happy Birthday sentiment from Serendipity Stamps, hand cut and matted onto some silver mirri card.

Do stop by the rest of the Design Team for some more wonderful inspiration, and hope to see you at the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog!

Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline
