Bespoke Birthday Card, Phoenix Blue







I had a request from my special friend Lori to make her Daughter a bespoke Birthday card, the design was to incorporate her daughters favourite colour blue & a phoenix a personal symbol to her, she liked the blue valentine card layout I did previously, so with this in mind here is what I created, finished off with a lined box of its own, pictures are a little yellow due to fluorescent light really need to get a photo light box

  1. Light Boxes are not all they are cracked up to be! You then need to start having spotlights shining on them and it is a faff to get them out.
    Your card on the other hand is beautiful.

  2. First, this was just such a beautiful card and I am so blessed to have such a talented and close friend to create something like this for me within a day with 3 children!!! I wanted to give my daughter something different and very special. These pictures do not do this card justice. The gorgeous white ribbon in the lace-up did not show up well in the photo. In daylight,you can see the white pearlescent card lightly reflecting the phoenix off of it, but shimmering lightly in the background itsself. The phoenix itsself was so clear, but yet so soft.She dotted around the image by hand so that it stood out but still looked very soft and defined.I beleive the 1st photo she has captured is the best, but then you are unable to see the flowers up close. Much more impressive in real life, as well as the colors we decided to go with. It was just an amazing card and I can't wait to hear how my daughter likes it! I'll keep you posted! :) Lori
