Special Daughter

We came home yesterday after a lovely ten days in our caravan in beautiful North Devon.  It was so lovely to get away near the sea for a break.  There were plenty of places to visit where we knew it would be quiet with very few people about.   It was also an opportunity to meet up with family who we haven't seen since Christmas for a small, socially distancing barbecue.  It was our daughter's birthday on Sunday and we were able to meet up with her to celebrate.  It was only the second time we've been able to see her since lockdown.  This is the card I made for her.

The card base was made with a Spellbinders 'Happy Days' step die.  The patterned paper is from a Dovecraft paper pad and all the flowers are from the Sizzix Thinlets set of dies, 'Floral Wreath'.  The sentiment is computer generated and punched with a SU punch.

I am joining in the following challenges:

    I'm glad you had a good time in North Devon - we were in Woolacombe a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed getting out in Cali again!
