January Birthday


Well Christmas may have come and gone for another year ... but the birthday card list is just beginning... This is one I made for a friend who has a birthday very soon


I used my Silhouette to cut this card ... the fancy cut really doesn't need much adding to it 
I used a scrap of Basic grey paper on the front of the card and a sheet of paper from the Paper Cellar to the inside of the card... 

... a handmade flower together with a Prima flower and lots of  liquid pearls ... Love that stuff but sometimes it takes a while to master ...
It's a wet and dreary day here ... so photographing things is not easy ...

I also received more Happy Mail today .... from my friend Sylvia Nelson ... one of her lovely handmade cards 


and two beautiful tags ...


Aren't they lovely?

Thanks so much Sylvia ... I love them

Wishing you all a wonderful day ... thanks for stopping by

Hi Ros, hope you've had a lovely Christmas.

Your birthday card is beautiful, I love the paper and your handmade flower.

I'm thinking that I now NEED a Silhouette. LOL I'm just in the process of sorting out my craft room so maybe there will be room for one. Ha ha - a girl can dream.

Best wishes for 2012. Chris x

What a genius card design, Ros!
The leopard paper in the middle gives the whole thing a "perky touch" :-)

I love your card you made using your Silhoutte. I am really impressed! Love the animal print dsp as well! Glad you like your card and received the package. You will be getting some candy later, I did not want to send it and it not get there because of the season, just know one of these days when things slow down I will be sending it. Have a wonderful New Year's Eve.
