A Golden Birthday

I'd never heard of this until I read about it in Sarah's INKURABLE STAMPERS" challenge blog, and it happens to be the current theme for the month, too.    You can check out the challenge HERE.
I started by stamping the images, "Jolies Fleurs" by Lizzie Anne Designs (a prize from INKURABLE STAMPERS)with gold ink and heat-embossing them with gold EP.  I then carefully lined up the card over a nestie and cut out the shape.     I stamped the three images (from Stampotique Originals) onto some acetate, and coloured them in using acrylic paints, and then stuck the acetate to the underside of the card using some ds tape.  

I used a TH Alterations die to cut the flower shapes out of some gold cs, which I then distressed and joined together with a rhinestone brad. 

I then added the tiny Kaiser letter stickers (from HERE) I just hope I got the correct age : )

I also made a golden ATC, using mostly Collections chipboard (from HERE, and HERE) and the words are from a Collections word sheet, I also used lots of yummy Stickles     The base was dry-embossed using a Cuttlebug folder.   

  
Thanks for having a look, and feel free to leave me a comment, a question, or just a "hello"
And, Happy Golden Birthday, Sarah, I wish you a most wonderful & exciting day : )
