Birthday Card

here is hubbys card i made for his birthday last week. used a dottie image. made a 'hole' then inside the card i added a 'record' behind the hole, which i had run through the bug with the happy birthday folder.
added a strip of acetate to the back of the dancers so they hang forwards and jiggle when you knock them.
when the card was stood on the mantle the heat from the fire made them dance.
hubby likes to rock & roll with his sisters at family parties but i cant get the hang of it lol.
he even had some boppers when i met him and sadly had to recently throw away his last pair as they had seen better days. said he wouldnt be buying anymore though as he is a bit too old for them now lol.

when the card is stood up the 'record' falls back and the 'its your day' & age stands out better. i did consider making an outline for the words but i didnt want those to be the first thing which drew the eye, that was for the dancers.







here you can see the appature (sp?)for the 'record' to show through and me and hubby dancing :)














this one shows the acetate a bit better and how far forward it hangs
