Ballerina Bear 1
A new shape not yet seen on this website. It's a book shaped card. When you fold, you'll see the top of the inside peeking out of the front, that is meant to be. You can add lines on there with gelpens etc right up to the top of the front and put those lines close together, so when the card is closed it will look as the pages of the book.
Add some hinge stickers etc and decoupage the little bear. There is even a textplate added to put you own text on.

I've printed on glossy photopaper, glued a thin piece of cream paper inside and cut the whole thing out at once.
At the top of the inside I drew lines right up to the top of the front so it looks like pages of a book.
Decorated the front with peeloffs, the vertical text on the 'spine' is Dutch for 'Happy Birthday' and the bear is decoupaged.
I didn't choose for the textplate to appear on the card, but it could be used on the inside or back too.
