Make up the magenta orchids decoupage using 3D foam pads or silicon glue. If using silicon glue leave overnight to dry.
Cut a 30mm strip of Stardream Amethyst paper and punch out a border down the length of the card, then stick this piece to the left hand side of the card using photo glue.
Cut a piece of Stardream Amethyst card to measure 110mm x 90mm and a piece of silver mirror card to measure 105mm x 85mm. Glue the silver mirror card to the Stardream Amethyst card using photo glue.
Cut a piece of Stardream Amethyst paper to measure 105mm x 85mm and punch out a border all the way round using the spring ribbon border punch. Glue the paper on to silver foil card using photo glue and place a 5mm pink self adhesive gem in each corner. Attach the mount to the front of the card using photo glue.
Note for beginners: the 3 pieces of glued card and paper with the gems becomes a mount for the decoupage which is to be added next.
Glue your decoupage on to the mount on the front of the card using photo glue.
Colour in the “Happy Birthday” greeting with the purple permanent marker pen and leave to one side to dry properly.
Meanwhile cut a piece of Stardream Amethyst paper to measure 45mm x 105mm and again punch out border all the way round.
Cut a piece of silver mirror card to measure 15mm x 10mm and then, using photo glue, centre this piece on top of the Stardream Amethyst paper you have just punched out.
Add the purple peel off Happy Birthday to the silver mirror card. Place 3 x 3mm pink self adhesive gems on the silver mirror card - 1 at the beginning of the Happy Birthday greeting, 1 in the middle and 1 at the end. Glue this onto the front of your main card with either 3D foam pads or silicon glue.
Finish off by placing 6 x 3mm gems down left hand side border of the card, spacing them evenly.
