Hoppy Birthday!


This card was very quick to make! Used Pink Petticoat papers - I've really fallen in love with this colour at the moment so you may be seeing alot more of it!! The image is a Penny Black Stickeroo which I've layered and then mounted with foam pads. The ribbon is Dovecraft (of course!) and the sentiment is Woodware. I really wanted the sentiment to read "Hoppy Birthday" but couldn't find any stamps or lettering small enough so settled for "Special Day" instead.

Might be having a bit of a late night tonight - my friend is coming over this evening for a curry and a drink or six(!!) and plenty of chat so doubt if I will be doing any cardmaking today!!

Eventually got to bed at 4.30 am then was woken at 9.15 this morning by Sam asking me if I was getting up because his tummy was empty and he was hungry!!! Got to love 'em!! Anyway, at least he's feeling better. Got to try and phone the Carpet Cleaner in a minute and order Sam a new mattress as his is ruined....oh the fun of being a Mother!! Back to business now, here's a card I made during the week with one of my new Whipper Snapper arrivals.
