Art Deco Stacker Topper - Pastel Pansies

I printed the sheet on quality cardstock and cut out all the pieces. I used foam pads for the decoupage part and double sided tape to adhere the rest of the card together.

I punched out two white border strips and placed them on either side of the front panel.

I glued the front panel to a complimentary lilac cardstock base card and then cut the top of the card base to follow the top edge of the front panel.

A silver "Happy Birthday" sentiment completes this softly appealing card.

Pansies are for thoughts! So I thought I would do something a little bit different with this pretty card. Firstly, I printed it onto good plain white card and cut out the very simple elements.

I covered the white cut edges using a black marker so the white did not show through. Then rather than straight and beautifully lined-up decoupage I dropped each layer and applied thickish spongy tape to the top edges of each layer and plain DST to the bottom edge to give it fan-like look.

I added small pearls to the corners of each level and the multi-pastel-coloured salutation as a finishing touch.
