Congratulations Card

Hi everyone!  Yes, it's me!  Ive been so busy at work lately.  I've neglected my cards terribly.  I may also have crafters block too! (Did I get it from the flu?)

 

I have a card today with a slight twist.  This is a Congrats card and the front off the card is the oval section.

 

 

 

 

You can see what I'm talking about below with the card opened.

I am going to do some more cards like this one.  I want to create some different constructions.

Items used:

• Spellbinders Ovals dies
• Hot off the Press Tiny Words and Phrases Dazzles
• Gold Raffia ribbon (Michaels)
• Various patterned papers

When I cut out this one oval mat I included the gold foil bird in it.

I colored this greetings dazzle with alcohol ink markers (Spectrum Noir)

Here's another look at the front.

Thanks for stopping by!
