Celebrate - World Card Making Day

Hi there ...

This is my second post for today ... If you're looking for my post for 
Our Beautiful World 
Please scroll down

I did a special card for WCMD but I couldn't post it before because I didn't want my friend to see it on my blog before I gave it to her ...

The Just Us Girls Challenge this week is a word week
The word is Celebrate


Well my dear friend Pat celebrates a special birthday and this is for her


I had to come up with something I know she hasn't seen me do before so I opted for a "bendy card"
She loves Aqua and pink!



I am so please at how this turned out and I love the balloons ... I cut them in vellum, each one is cut twice and I sandwiched the 'strings' between them then added some glitter ... They float like real balloons


my cat always hangs around us when we are together so I had to put cats in there 


To say she was thrilled is an understatement ... It makes me smile to see her face light up

Now I'm making projects for my thursday group so I'll sign off

Enjoy your day

~ Ros ~

BRILLIANT card Ross, love the curved fence, so clever!

Ros you never cease to amaze me. I love how you created this little scene ( I can not call this a card) and your cats are so cute! The idea to create balloons from vellum is brilliant and they look gorgeous. This is a gift of its own; Pat loved it and so do I!
XXXXX
