Happy birthday to Christine


It is my good friend Christine's birthday tomorrow, so this morning I got busy to make her card. When I sat down I didn't really know what I would make, but was inspired when I found this cute image in my stash that was gifted to me by Evelyn C from Docrafts - it seemed to fit with some K&Co papers that I bought yesterday!

Having finished the card I looked around to see if I could enter it into any challenges ... this week's new Stamp Something Challenge is birthday somethings ... so that's a good fit!! And Cute Card Thursday #24 is bright colours ... well this card's colours are pretty bright for me compared with my usual pastels! Really hope Christine likes it and has a fab day!

I used: Penny Black image from Evelyn C, Penny Black sentiment, K&Co papers, lace from Hobbycraft, Prima flowers, Papermania pearl brads. I also had another good go at faux stitching - I'm really getting into it!
