Happy 95th! What a milestone birthday. I am sure there would have been a huge celebration in pre-covid times. For now, it is a card party! My card is super easy to re-create, as the base is actually a Party Time Picture My Life card. Close To My Heart has issued a limited release of Party Time and Lovely Picture My Life Cards. The sets are even 15% off if you purchase the bundle in March! Each set includes 24 double sided cards. While the cards are made for scrapbooking, you can see they make perfect cards as well! Here is a look at some of the cards included in the Party Time set-
To create my card, I added in a few die cuts for the happy and 95. I die cut the images three times in Raspberry cardstock and mounted them together for a 3-D look. The original card had a Let’s Celebrate sentiment. I added a birthday banner over the top to complete my Happy 95th Birthday! A little shimmer was added to the ribbon on the presents and a few sequins finish off the card.

Fabulous card to cheer up the 95 years old recipient ! Love the fun design and bright colours. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at Addicted to Stamps and More.
What a lovely bright way to celebrate 95! What a milestone that is. Great use of the cards and stacking the die cut for dimension was a good idea. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge.
