Set of 5 Layered Buckle Designs

Love these Buckles, as they're so versatile. I've only use one of the designs on this card. I enlarged the design slightly and cut out the top layer in a Silver patterned mirror card and the mat in a plain white card. I've used a piece of white & silver embossed material laced through the buckle and attached to the back of a piece of white embossed card, using strong DST. I then attached the backing mat to my Silver card base.

The finished card looks stunning in natural light.

I cut out all layers of the buckles out. For the layered buckle I used on this card I took the two layers and covered them with Zig two way glue.

I then covered the bottom with some one tone guilding flakes.

The other layer I covered with varigated guilding flakes with more red and brown tones in it. I then attached one layer to the other. I took a pre scored and embossed white square card, threaded two different ribbons through the buckle and attached inside the front of the card both sides using ultra tacky tape.

An insert was placed inside to cover the ribbon ends.

I finished off with a peel-off greeting "Penblwydd Hapus" - which is Welsh for "Happy Birthday".
