Vault Birthday Card


My husband asked that I make a special card for his buddy's 70th Birthday Party.  The theme was to go along with a collectible 100 Trillion Dollar Bill from Zimbabwe.  Therefore the safe theme.

No Dies or Stamps were used as it had to be a specialty size.  The front of the card used non copyrighted images and a punched name plate.

Paper
Copper Shimmer Paper (SU), Silver Paper (SU)

Accessories
Hodgepodge Hardware (SU) - hinges and label punch (SU)
