My very best friend turned 50 last week and I wanted to make her a special card to commemorate the occasion. I've always loved cards that include the recipient's age. It really seems to personalize the card a lot more and I think it makes a great keepsake for this particular birthday girl. I mean, it's not every day a girl turns the big 5-0 right?
I wanted this card to be bright and clean so I kept the colors to a minimum and I didn't add any patterns. I stayed with the same colors and theme throughout the card. I took the extra step of inlaying all of the lettering on the word bubbles because I really love the affect.
I added a decorated flap on the inside of the card to make it more unique and to add some interest.
The last page I just wanted to tease her a little about all those candles she has to blow out this year. I thought I'd take advantage of all that space above the word bubble to add a bunch of stamped and diecut balloons. I really had a great time with this card.
Happy Birthday Dusti!!! I love you girl!
