Birthday cake card

 Hi Everyone, a card for my eldest brother today, I made it for a DT post and forgot I had made it, I had put it in a pile of cards made for birthdays. 

My excuse is, I bought a new guillotine, with Christmas money, that can cut A3 card, so I can easily cut 5x7inch cards landscape. I am so excited, as the only way I could do it before was to use my Silhouette.

I always look through my files for birthday, it doesn't always, but for this card it turned up trumps, yet again.

I took the Baker and the sentiment into Silhouette, then placed them as I wanted them. Next, I added his age and the sentiment. The page design and 3 copies of the Baker were printed. The Baker was coloured with markers, although not my best effort, I hope my brother doesn't notice. They were glued together.

The background paper was printed, and the baker layer was added to it, with the die cut sentiment.

Super card for your Brother Faith and what a fun sentiment.

You'll find that larger cutter so useful, as with Emma, I use mine to cut card blanks, invaluable.
