the 'main' card i used a number of dies on the front. The frame and cameo were from a sissix set that i purchased off their website also the small envelope die was purchased from there as well and the best bit about these, other than they look fab is the fact they were on sale at such a huge discount !! The paper was from a selection by DCWV. Its so beautiful, just like real flocked wallpaper. The embelishment was from a selection i purchased at That Craft Place - great shop !!
I then proceeded to decorate smaller cards to be stuck in place inside so they had their own personal card. Amy's is the one on the left and she is a very sophisticated woman so i chose to use Graphic 45s Couture collection papers which sums her up to a 'T' .
I then started on John's side and as he likes cars i used some vintage papers i bought from Kraftyhands with a Tim holtz movers and shapers car die. i then proceeded to wipe over antique gold cosmic shimmer paste. The 'Happy birthday' sentiment is from Tonic and the pocket watch stamp from Visible image which i embossed with gold embossing powder.
And that's it......phew, i'm off for a lie down now as all this explaining has tired me out xx
