I kept the design quite simple - it's simply layering with different papers and finishes. I decided to make a rosette as the main feature on the card and used a number of different nesties to cut out the layers. The only bit of stamping on the card is the birthday greeting.

Today is going to be quite busy. Jonathan and I will be starting on the next round of decluttering; and I'm sure we'll make a good start on filling the skip! Kathryn is going to make a birthday card for her friend - she's at the party this afternoon. And this evening we are all off to Helen's party. It's going to be a fun day! See you soon.

This is a great card for a Scouting leader! Great background papers, and all that holographic and mirri card will make sure that this card just shines!! Gorgeous!
Love the sparkle and the holographic paper! And the trefoils! Perfect 'not-frilly' card! And I see we have something else in common - my daughter Kate's full name is Kathryn - and she loves cardmaking too! But it ends there, alas - my son is Struan. Have a great weekend!
Deborah, Very pretty! I love all the layers and of course the shiny papers!! Definately an eye catcher and a keeper!
Very effective with the layers & your use of the trefoil design.
Super with the rosette idea - especially for a Guider & not a sign of a pink either!!
Hope you've had a lovely evening.

What an excellent card for a guider - she will be delighted I'm sure!
