This birthday card was inspired by the dusty rose paper that forms the background and envelope.
It is a sheet from one of my DCWV paper stacks. It has wispy flowers, leaves, and words with an aged look — like a page that an old book of poetry might have.
I thought this would be a good pairing for a word from my stash of metallic letters. (I’ve had them for a long time and no longer know the manufacturer.)
They are about a 1/2-inch tall, with a slit in the back.
It’s hard to tell from the card, but they slide along the dark blue ribbon, which has been glued to the back of the cupcake wrapping.

I've been crafting for many years. I started with cross-stitching, then moved on to wearable art, projects with painted wood, fabric crafts, and paper crafts -- which has transformed primarily into card making. I also do some rubber stamping and scrapbooking, but mostly I enjoy creating handmade, one-of-a-kind cards.
