Smile It's Your Birthday Mini KitCompleted by Donna Ritchie

This is not a quick card as there is a lot of fussy cutting involved but it is SO worth the extra effort. This is the perfect card for that friend or relative who is refusing to acknowledge their latest birthday. I printed the design on matte photo paper and cut out all the elements. I then used foam dots and squares to build the layers - don't skimp on these as there is nothing worse than having a part of the completed design 'sink'.

These characters make you smile and, hopefully, will do the same for your friend.
