As I mentioned in Monday's post, the Cuttlebug dies don't quite fill up the A2 size cards. On this one, if you look at the edges, you can see where the embossing didn't go all the way to the edges. You have to decide how important that is to you and how important the embossed design is.

3. Round the corners on the patterned paper and adhere it on top of the blue & white cross piece that you just put on.
4. Using Island Indigo ink on white card stock, stamp the circle image and the birthday greeting.
5. Use the circle punch to punch out the circle image and the oval punch to punch out the birthday greeting.
6.  Adhere the circle to the center of the patterned paper.
7. Place dimensionals to the back of the greeting. Place it on top of the blue and white strip.
8. Adhere the card front on to a card base and send to a friend.
