The three larger circles were cut and embossed all at one time by nesting the die templates together. I sanded the paper lightly to highlight the embossed areas. These circles have such great detail! They're one of my favorites!
The card front was embossed with a new Spellbinders M-Bossabilitites™ embossing folder. This pattern is called Elite. The great thing about these folders is that they emboss 2 different patterns depending on how the folder is folded! You can see all the different folders on the Spellbinders website.
To assemble the card, I fastened the circles together with 3D Foam Squares from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. Then I wrapped a short piece of the ribbon around the circles and fastened it together on the back. I tied a separate bow and attached it to circles with a Glue Dot. Much easier than trying to wrap the ribbon around the circles and then tie the bow!!!
I cut the narrow flag from Spellbinders Nautical Frame and Accents from white card stock. Then I stamped the birthday verse on it in black ink. I tied it to the bow with cord. Finally all is mounted on the card front with 3D Foam Squares under the ribbon and under the verse.
Pretty easy, huh?
For a different look, the Splendid Circles could easily be cut from multiple colors of paper. Cut 3 sets and mix and match to make 3 coordinating cards!
Happy Creating!
