Dads card

Here is 1 of 4 cards I made on Sunday , it`s for his Birthday Wednesday  I hope to write up the other later.

Main card stock Paper mill ,Front Centural Pearl ,I placed my Spellbinders Tuck and Fold Die where I wanted it ,then cut it ,then placed my Mask underneath the die then embossed it ,where the masked finished I placed my ribbon from stash, candy from stash ,and a few sentiment I got with mag ages ago, then put mounting foam on the back.
Then I cut the 3 dies with Foundations paper as its double sided  and  then  did the  folds, in between the first and second finished cuts I have placed a circle to break it up as the pattern was a bit overwhelming,I put on Cosmic Shimmer teal glue on the spikes and in the centre . I then centred it up and stuck it down .

I was told by my Sister the theme was emerald so this is why I went with the colours ,the main card is Mint from Hobby craft  Had it ages,I did want to make it stand up Card but it wouldn`t stand write so I did landscape instead ,Sue Wilson  Gala stamps are absolutely fab they are my favourite stamp at the moment I have embossed it with wow powders ,Also use the ivy leaf mask on the last two layers of the card and distressed the whole card  when still in dies from the summer collection Moss Green got it  at bargain £9.50 from a craft shop in Whitstable, they are part of Oyster Stamps  ( and not £17.99 on C&C).
