Simple 17th Birthday Card Using Badges for Embellishments

This is a card I made for my niece, she is very unfussy, so this really suits her style.

I used my Bandai badge maker (see archive- 23rd August 2009) to make the embellishments, but left the pin attachment off and stuck them down with foam pad instead.

I have mat and layered on ribbed black and silver mirror card and added one small but very sparkly flat back pink gem from Craftwork Cards on each square, the gems are expensive but worth it for the extra sparkle.
