I had a request from one of my friends to make a 50th birthday card for her daughter. There was a little twist to this request. She wanted me to incorporate sharks and mermaids into the card. After much thought, I put this card together, using the Karen Burniston Little Labels Pop-Up on the inside.
As it was a 50th birthday, I thought I should use some gold in the design, so I made the frame (Pinkfresh Studios) and the "50th" (Karen Burniston) from gold cardstock. I had found that cool wave paper at Hobby Lobby several months ago and figured the shark would look cute behind one of the waves.
On the inside the Little Label Pop-Up holds both a shark and a couple of mermaids -- thus fulfilling the request. I added a couple of Border Blend strips to the top and bottom of the card, as well as the larger label for a place to sign the card. Those larger labels were created using dies from the Paper Frames set, which has labels of the same shape as those in the Little Labels Pop-Up.
I hope my friend likes this.
