Filigree Birthday Card





I bought some more spellbinders dies just before Christmas and eager to use them, I designed this card for a friend’s birthday. I used Romantic Rectangles to cut the filigree boards, cutting two of them from 300gsm card for the back and front of the card. I joined the back and front with a folded piece of card glued to the inside.On the inside I placed a larger piece of the same double sided paper from Kaisercraft that I used for the boards, reversing the paper so that the dark pink side was uppermost on the inside. This also makes a nice plate for a greeting.



From the remaining paper, I made the two large flowers and the insides of the smaller flowers. The scrolls, sentiment and it’s backing were made from white 200gsm card scraps sponged with olive coloured ink. A few pearls and white ribbon loops finished the card off.

A brief tutorial/discussion on various methods of hinging filigree cards is in the tutorial section.
