Happy Birthday

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Always needing birthday cards, I was inspired by the popcorn box challenge at Die Cuttin Divas to incorporate a popcorn box in my project. Tickets or money to buy movie tickets and popcorn seems like a good present that could be easily enclosed with the card for the birthday person.

Card is 5"x 6 1/2" cut from white cardstock. Top layer is a gray embossed paper from Craft Smith Embossed Neutrals pad. Other papers are scraps from other projects.

Cricut Cartridges:
Family Album - Red and white shaped mats are cut 6" wide. Phrase Movie Night is also part of the mats grouping. The border of Stars is cut 6.48" wide using yellow and a gray paper. I ungrouped these images from the rest of the scrapbook page in Cricut Design Space and cut sizes that would fit my card.
Movie Night - Pop Corn box image is cut 1.50" wide. Cinema ticket is cut 1.8" wide.
Picturesque - Swirls in the upper corner and the one under Happy birthday.
Cricut Font and Basic Shapes - Happy Birthday is cut 3" wide. 

Challenge: 
Die Cuttin Divas - Ch. 237 National Popcorn month -include popcorn box or inspired by a movie.
