50th Birthday Card

This card was for my sister in law who, probably reluctantly, celebrates her 50th birthday today.  I used paper and dies from the new Crafter's Companion Sara Davies Signature Range.  Very pretty papers and a lovely font for the happy birthday die, elegant but not too fussy.  I used the largest die to create the aperture and embossed the front panel in the corner.  I cut the 50 and the Happy Birthday in both silver and lilac and offset them slightly to form a drop shadow.  I always find it hard to photograph mirri card successfully but hopefully you get the idea!
