Cute Kitties Pop Up Birthday Card

A cat loving friend celebrated her birthday recently, and this is the card I made for her. The papers and chipboard elements have been in my stash for a couple of years. One of the problems with buying online I guess - you can't really see the all papers in a paper package, and I didn't pay enough attention to the description of the elements or I wouldn't have bought them. They are darling, but chipboard can make cards a little more expensive to mail. 

Since I have them, I got them out for this 5 x 7" card which was hand delivered when we had dinner together.   My first play with Opal Glimmer Foil and I loved how it looked on black cardstock. 

Inside, I used Karen Burniston's Paper Frames Pop Up cut from more of the patterned paper and added some sweet stamps from Honey Bee. The border dies are from Scrapbook.com and I linked as much as I could for you.

Below is what the card looks like when viewing from the top.

Late last year I was asked how many cards I make but I didn't have a clear number. Since many of my posts include more than a single card or project, I thought it would be fun to keep track this year.
