Birthday Card Idea - Planetary

Birthday Card - Planetary

This week's card idea turned out to remind me a little of the planets in the universe. Hence, the name Planetary. I didn't have a visual image of what I wanted to create when I first started, and I ended up with this. I thought it looks rather artsy and abstract. ;) Do you think it'll work as a boy/guy birthday card?

Card Making Steps

1. Create a cardblank from the yellow cardstock.

2. Cut out a big block of black paper and adhere it to the right-side of the card.

3. Assemble a series of 7 assorted buttons and two circle punch-outs (red and blue) and attach them to the card as shown. Cut out a strip of black ribbon and attach it to the left-side of the card as shown.

4. Handwrite the greetings at the lower right corner. Doodle a border along the right edge of the card. Both using the white pen.

5. Round the four corners of the card with a corner-rounder.
