cLaSsY biRtHdAy...

Goal of the week is to design a birthday card for a classy lady. She is a great friend, who had travelled miles to attend my wedding last year. This has meant a lot. My card style has always been cutesy and pretty so far. So, this will be a new challenge. But, I think it turned out rather well. I am liking the card of the week. What do you think?



For the card today, I have chosen a pearlised cream tall card, and used a floral damask aqua wrapping paper (purchased from John Lewis) as background. The damask paper has a soft velvety pattern, that helps give the classy feeling. The card is then topped with three inchies stamped using Hero Arts 'Thank You Flourishes' stamp in 'Memento' and 'Clearly Better' inks. They are then framed in baby blue and sky blue squares, to tie in the aqua background. 'Sending birthday wishes' (from Papertrey 'Everyday Button Bits') completes the classy look. :)
 

So... a classy card for a classy friend... :)
