Lily's 2026 Birthday Card

Lily is a very sweet young lady whose 18th birthday is today!

She's my BFF's Granddaughter & I'm sort of an 'adopted' Grandmother to her.

I love her very much.

Like all of this year's birthday cards that I've made for friends,

I also followed the same design for Lily

which is layering strips of different papers that go well together.

Lily's favorite color is pink.

I also used mint color, which goes so well with pink.

Here are close ups of the strips that cover the front of this 5" x 7" card.

These are the top ones.

These are the ones on the bottom.

I decided to die cut the number "18" in a pretty pink glitter paper, 

flanked by two ReneaBouquets beautiful pink flat butterflies.

Once again, I've used an incredibly beautiful ReneaBouquets butterfly!

It's adhered with foam circles for dimension in the center of the oval die cut.

A special note just for Lily is printed in mint color on the pink oval.

The inside of the card on the left side has laser cut elements

 from the paper collection used to make the card.

Very HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY to sweet Lily!

Thanks for coming by to see her birthday card.

Have a blessed day,

Lisa >^..^<
