Feminine Milestone 60, 70, 80th Birthday Cards

Hello

We are continuing with our milestone birthday cards today, with ideas for 60, 70 and 80th birthdays.

This beautifully patterned paper (from Kaszazz), needed only a backing paper, some gems, ribbon, glitter, and a sentiment die cut from foiled card.

The yellow card is a patterned paper cut along the lines of the design, then pieced and layered on to a doily and a coordinating coloured paper. A silk flower is tucked behind the top curled corner. A ribbon tied into a bow, a resin flower, sentiment label, glitter and gems were added.

The blue card is patterned paper, with a gem flourish and a silk flower, layered onto a second paper, then on to the card front. A die cut foiled sentiment and pearls were added.

The blue card is a decoupage design, layered on to embossed paper, then on to pearl card. 

Glitter tape was placed on the card base, then the design panel, lace, and silver thread tied into a small bow. Pearls, gems and a sentiment label were added.

The final card is again a patterned paper with paper flowers and loops of silver thread. This was added to pearl card, then the card base. A stamped butterfly, The die cut sentiment, and gems were added.

Enjoy your day

Till next time

Feminine Milestone, 30, 40, 50th Birthday Cards

Hello

How is your day going?
On going through my stash I found these sheets of pyramage and paper tole designs, so decided it was time to deal with them.

To the first design I added leaf sprigs die cut from green vellum, a layer of foil spotted vellum, a layer of blue card, ribbon, and a die cut sentiment, then layered it all on to a card base of deeper blue. Gems and stickles glitter glue finished off the design.

The second design was assembled on to a die cut oval layered on to patterned paper, which was matted to coordinating card, wrapped with ribbon, then fixed to a pink card base. A die cut sentiment, gems, and glitter glue were then added.

For this card, a panel of ivory card was embossed then coloured with gilding paste, layered onto coordinating card, then on to the card base. The assembled piece was added, along with die cut vellum leaves, and a multi looped twine bow. The die cut sentiment, gems and glitter were then added.

This design, along with die cut vellum leaves, was added to a die cut embossed oval, brocade patterned paper, then card wrapped with ribbon threaded through a rhinestone buckle. This was then layered on to the square card base. Stardust pen was added to the edges of the paper and card layers. The sentiment was die cut and added, then coated with glossy accents. Gems were added, and glitter applied to the leaves were the final touches.
