Have you seen Bendi Cards? They were all the rage a few years ago but I am a late-adopter, so this is my first one. I wanted a special card for my mom's birthday, so I pulled out all the stops to make this one.
Incredibly, I started with this Christmas bendi card file from 3dsvg.com.
It's a 3-layer free-standing card that I modified for my purposes. I really liked the fence and the general shape of the card and did not want to have to do any math to develop my own base! Here is what I created by modifying the card base file:
It is a 3D card that, when the tabs are undone, folds flat for mailing. Here is a slightly side angle.
I used charming digital papers from the Nitwit Birdsong Collection. My mom loves birds so this seemed perfect. There are three birds tucked among the greenery. I like how the birds seem to be looking at the quote.
The quote and ribbon bow are also digital files from the same collection (I added a crystal gemstone).
For the back of this card, I created a focal point using the "alphawits" in the collection. It is so nice to have everything coordinate, and if I run out, I can just print more!
Thanks for visiting today! I am entering this card at Seize the Birthday.
