Maroon Dreams Birthday Card

Maroon Dreams Birthday Card

Maroon Dreams Birthday Card

For this birthday card, I used a gorgeous piece of maroon-coloured corrugated layered paper from a chocolate box.

I cut it up to fit the size of my card blank. Using black thread, I sewed in stitches on the four edges before pasting it down with glue.

I used several recycled items for this card. The light lilac-coloured flower paper was from another card. The black-bronze tag was a lovely clothes tag! I found the bronze butterfly print on the clothes tag gorgeous so I used it.

Feel free to comment on this card. Thank for looking!



Supplies List
- White card blank
