Birthday bloomer


Hello dear blog friends ... I have so much to do and so little time ... as well as trying to do my Christmas cards ... cut and prepare things for the school tomorrow .... club night tonight ... I have a lot of birthdays this month too ... It was my one of my friends' birthday yesterday so this is a card I made for her ... 


I always do inserts for my cards and this takes a fair bit of time ... finding a verse, printing it etc., and I completed the card and drove in the ice to my friend's house with the gift and card wrapped prettily ...
It was only on the way home I realised that I hadn't signed the card! OMG I felt such a fool ... and neither my friend nor her family said anything ... they obviously didn't want to embarrass me ... I confess that this is not the first time I have done this either ... and like before I had to make the call to apologise and ask that they sign it themselves. Fortunately on both occasions ... it caused a laugh ...


Thankfully this is the last night at the Thursday club ... Tuesday was the last night at Philosophy and I took a card in for everyone with handmade treats ... I need to slow down ...
So now I am off to see to my husband's eye drops ... 

Have a great day ... Till soon

Maybe the card wasn't signed but I can see in a split second that this is an orignal beauty made by Ros :)! I think I recognised some papers of Webster's Pages; gorgeous and chic. And that flower; awww. ( made by you?)
This card is a gift of its own; stunning!
Have a lovely day!

HA! i have DONE THAT with the unsigned card! or even sending a gift/article to someone without a note of explanation! i think ppl are so pleased to get something besides BILLS in the mail...they don't even notice... :)

certainly if i got a card THAT LOOKED LIKE THIS...there is nothing that could remotely dim my joy...or make me think the cardmaker was any less than a creative genius! (SO THERE!!!) ♥♥♥ (wow!!!)

Such a beautiful card. I am sure they didn't mind if you signed it or not. Sometimes we get a little distracted. LOL :)
