My mum requested a card for her friend turning 95 years old. Wow! This is a milestone that I am so glad will be well celebrated by her friends and family.
My mum requested a "large size" card. Since I myself find over-sized cards cumbersome to store (ahh, yes, I am making the huge assumption that the card will be kept for keepsakes), I suggested to her this accordion style card instead.
Actually, it does open up, if so desired, for display like this:
Yes, if you care to count the candles, there are 95 of them!
I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest made by fellow Stamin' Up! Demonstrator Brandi Mahon. I didn't use her tutorial as I knew how to make an accordion card and the colours I used were Pool Party, Crushed Curry and retired colours of Berry Burst, Tranquil Tide, Lemon Lime Twist and Peekaboo Peach (mainly colours from the retired Picture Perfect Party DSP).
ps: Just heard from my Mum that the recipient and all those who sign in her card loved it! It is truly a pleasure to be part of her life celebration even in a small way.
Thank you for stopping by my blog, and have a fabulous day! M xx
