the birthday series!

I had a great time making these birthday cards. In the world of computers and advanced technology, it's nice to get a handmade card once in a while. Enjoy!

  2. The cardstock actually came with the apple border and I was lucky enough to find it. I love the glitters on the sparkly cardstock as well!

  4. A cardstock is the same type of paper you use for scrapbooking. It comes in 12x12 usually or 8.5x11. So for that particular card, I had to cut it in the size of card I wanted and then fold it with a bone folder. You can buy plain cardstock or patterned card stock

  8. Hi,

    You can either use glue dots or foam squares depending on how "springy" you want it to look.

    Good luck!
