Bella Birthday


I needed a birthday card for my niece in Florida so I headed over to Splitcoast to find a new technique. And this is what I found: Cami's Tri-Fold Card . It is so easy to do and so very cute! In the tutorial they use a doublesided patterened paper, but I couldn't find any in my stash that I liked for this card so I used Lavendar Lace. The scallop around the window is Pretty in Pink. The happy birthday image is a Bella and stamped in Elegant Eggplant. The ribbon is just some pink ribbon I had, non-SU.



This is what you see when you first open the card. Originally I was going to stamp the butterflies all over the card, then I stopped, I'm glad I did. They are also stamped in Elegant Eggplant and the image is from Time Well Spent. I used my CM cutting system and cut the larger oval in Pretty in Pink and a smaller oval in white and then stamped the Happy Happy Birthday (from one of the All Year Chear sets). Next we have the Bella. She is Ipodabella and you see her face and ipod through the window on the front. I didn't really know what to do with the next page, so I just put some flowers on dimensionals. It looks really cute as you open it up and I think my niece will really like it.
