Happy birthday Sarah and card for Jenbob

Made this for a work colleague and dug out a fun image and sentiment that I had been given and raided my embellishments to make this card. Not sure if I like this card but not going to make another one lol.



Donated image coloured with promarkers, stampin up modern label punch, 1st edition 'boho chic' papers, Woodware scallop square punch, ribbon and buttons are papermania. Flowers were layered up and I added buttons.



This card was a sad card to make but i have sent it to Jen and family with my love and the card i had made for Sandra. its still doesn't seem real and that Sandra will just pop into the forum. ingredients for this card were Memory box 'prim poppy' die, Stampin up whimsical words stamped greeting, Oval and scallop nesties,Card and pearls from stash.

Been working part time during the Easter holidays doing paperwork so due in again today and am finding it hard to get going this morning. So will catch up with your blogs later x
