Autumnal Birthday

Good morning all,
the sun is shining, my youngest is at big school and I've been laid off due to down-sizing.....in the words of teenagers everywhere....WHATEVER!!!
But seriously it's no biggy, not yet at least! I have been building up my card stock for months knowing that the site would eventually be shutting......my date arrived earlier than expected!!
BUT!!!
It does mean I get to craft and share a lot more with all you lovely people   : )
So without further ado.....A Three Challenge Card!!!!
 Now, rotate the sketch 90 degree clockwise and swap the flowers for butterflies, gather every tiny piece of scrap autumn coloured card and a small leaf-shaped die and you get:
Ta Dah!
A very autumnal birthday card...
  • Card used - SU chocalte chip, more mustard, cajun craze, old olive daffodil delight. (other than the card itself all the other embellishments were made with scraps I've been hoarding)
  • Stamps - Butterflies (free from craft stamper mag), Grow (a gift from my SU demonstrator), With Love (waltzing mouse celtic heritage set)
  • Die - Maianne LR0117
The large stamped image was created by first applying more mustard ink at one end, old olive at the other, then very carefully adding the cajun craze down the middle.

I think the best thing about this card is it is great for a man or a woman.

Back soon
Hugs
