Happy Birthday

Dear bloggers,

Here is a card that I finished off today after it lay for some weeks on my art table. And don't ask what all lies there!!! 

The designer paper was sent to me several years ago by a blogger named Terry who doesn't blog any more.  The fan has been die cut using a yoghurt lid. The Happy Birthday has been heat embossed with silver embossing powder on to hand torn strip of vellum. I stuck a narrow piece of white cardstock under the vellum to highlight the sentiment. In real life, the sentiment looks quite nice and shiny. The pearls as you may guess, were added to cover up the glue marks which actually were not really visible. However, I wanted to play it safe.

I will participate in the following challenges:
