Pinochle Birthday Card

Hello all! This was a custom 5x7 card that I created last year for a 90th birthday. It was for someone who loves Pinochle. 

I didn't get anywhere to purchase a deck of Pinochle cards, so I scanned and printed cards that I had at home to create those for the front. Patterned paper is from DCWV's Marquee stack. The gorgeous flower was die cut using Sizzix Thinlits Icelandic Poppy die. I printed the 90 onto light blue paper, then die cut around it with a CC stitched circle die, then matted it with a CC scalloped stithed circle die. It was popped up with foam tape. I decided I still wanted a sentiment on the front, so I die cut a small tag and stamped a sentiment in black on it, finishing the tag off with a bow of Frosted Cranberry Trendy Twine. For a little extra sparkle, I finished the card off with a trio of silver gems. Other adhesives used include Bearly Art precision glue, and ATG.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
