Lucky Birthday

Hi crafty friends!!  I'm here today with a commission card.  I was asked to create a festive card for someone's birthday that happens to be on St. Patrick's Day.  Yes, it had to be green.


I knew I wanted to make a shaker card, it allow me to play with the fuse-it tool again.  This time it went much easier with the correct weight of acetate paper.  Then I also found this great find of glitter paper.  Extra bling points for me :o)  With all that bling I had to keep the design very simple.  The image is from Bugaboo, which I colored with my color pencils.


Here's the inside, which the poem was written by the giver.

thanks for looking and reading :o)

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:



stamps used: Bugaboo: JJ Calendar Months-March, Stampin' Up: Something to Celebrate
paper used: Bazzill: patch, Recollections: glitter paper, Michelle R Designs kingdom green & gold
die-cut: MFT Oval stax 1
embellishments: Really Reasonable Ribbon, 3 Girl Jam ribbon, Treehouse sequins, Recollections glitter shapes, paint
