Birthday Mermaid 1Completed by Margaret McCartney

I printed the front of the design and the insert onto good quality 260gsm photographic paper and the insert again onto 160gsm paper and cut these out.

I folded the insert at the top bar and then attached this to the front of the design at the top using double sided tape.

This will form an A shaped card and the extra insert printed onto then 260gsm photographic paper gives it stability and it will stand on its own.

I then assembled the decoupage using thin foam tape.

You could also just attach the front of the design to a card and add the paper insert to the inside if you desire.

A beautiful card when finished and it will fit into its 8 x 8 envelope for posting.
