Keep Krafty Birthday Card

I'm sharing a birthday card, I made for a friend, using the Keep Krafty Cardmaking Mini download Kit from Opulence by Design Crafts.


This beautiful mini digital download kit comprises of a topper sheet, 3 backing papers and 2 inserts. It is also available as a free download on their website for you to 'keep crafting' and enjoy!



I printed out what I had decided to use for my card. The last page is a very pale grey, which works really well as a plain border for my card. I also had some grey cardstock which I used to make the envelope. These were printed on 160gsm smooth paper.


I like adding dimension to my cards and Amanda's designs have such beautiful flowers on her papers that  I think are easy to cut into.  I printed this topper out a few times and cut a few of the flora and foliage out to decoupage and add to the front of my card.

I just added a little ink to the edges, a little shaping and some Stickles glitter glue to twinkle and highlight and it makes all the difference I think.

The frame was created with a Tattered Lace die from my craft stash using rose gold satin board.
A little bit of ribbon some tiny pearls for texture and colour.



One of the inserts inside my card.


I've also used an iridescent clear overlay glitter brush pen over the foliage on my backing paper and very lightly on the petals of my blooms too.

If you are interested in more inspiration and demos from Opulence by Design, you can follow her on Youtube

That's another card on its way.

Have a great weekend, whatever you have planned for yourself.

Happy Crafting
