Too Sweet Alphabet TilesCompleted by Gwyneth George

I took the right letters to spell "Penblwydd Hapus" (Wellsh for "Happy Birthday"), together with an assortment of animals from cup342317_1294, into one of my graphics packages and resized, moved around, created a background, etc., until I was happy with my layout for a card front for an A5 card. I also made a second copy onto the other half of my working area before I printed so that I'd have pieces to decoupage. I printed the design out onto 300gsm, Super Smooth, white cardstock and cut out the main card front and various letters and animal tiles to decoupage. I used a pre-scored white A5 card and attached my card front layer directly to this using fingerlift tape. I then used 1mm deep, double sided, foam tape to attach the letters and animal tiles I'd chosen.

A card that's a little bit different to give to a child.
