Another Asian B'day Lever Card

I had to make another SCAL Lever style card (from svgcuts.com) in my favorite color: red/black!!! That beautiful paper is Best Creation Inc. It's a double sided paper with one side that has glitter accents. I love the Asian symbols on this 12x12 paper. The embossing folder is a Cuttlebug folder. Photo corners in black.

Here's the center medallion re sized from the original and cut at 2" in Black with a Red 2-1/4" circle background. To adhere that skinny medallion, spray the underside with adhesive (a trick Jan Castle http://www.jancastle.blogspot.com/ shared with me!) The medallion is from http://www.svgcuts.com/ The background circle is easily made using SCAL. Both are popped with dimensionals.

Here's the card completely opened showing all layers................cool, eh? A simple grosgrain ribbon is used to break up some of the lines in this paper with punched photo coiners in red. The inside of this card is kept simpler to showcase the great paper.....................

The happy Birthday pop up was slightly wonky so I added some clear acetate to the back of each word to stabilize it...............it worked out fine

Here's a side view of the card: A separate piece of white was added behind the Happy Birthday words
