The pattern I used for the card is called Pop it Up Twisted Circle Card.
Two by Two Challenge at A Place to Start
I used Tim Holtz Hipster stamps to create the card. I used similar papers in the cards and many of the same embellishments. I coloured the gears with Copic Markers and Distress Ink. I added gears, diamond glaze, wooden numbers, and a sentiment to complete the card.
They were fun cards to make and always a pleasure to make them for their birthday.
Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month. Hope you will join us this month for this challenge.
