Tri-Shutter 70th Birthday Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope you have had a good week. The weekend is not far away now. Today I will be helping at another Felting Workshop and  we will be making pictures. I wasn't expecting to be involved today but the other lady who helps is unfortunately ill which is a shame. Tonight we are going to the theatre with friends to see Rainman.

I wasn't going to blog today but then I was looking through my files and I found this Tri-Shutter card that I made for a friend's birthday back in December.


I love this style of card. They are rather impressive, they fold up to go in a small envelope and they are great for using all your small dies. The chap in question is the husband of one of my crafty friends. She made her card to him at my house so it would be a surprise for him. This meant that I had a good idea about things he liked. I used a music embossing folder for the backing as he likes music. 


All the scoring was done on my scoring board and I used a craft knife to cut the slits. The colours I used are the ones of his football team. 


I just used small dies to fill in the spaces. It is fun finding ones to fit with the theme. 


I know he liked this card and that he had a great birthday. I might just make one like this for my uncle who is 85 soon. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Have a great weekend. 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie

    Hi Jackie,
    oh I love this wonderful card and the fab design.
    Love all the elements used and the colours are so fab.
    I'm sure he did love it as it's so different from the usual style cards we all seem to buy.
    Enjoy the Theatre tonight.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
