A wonderful friend will be 90 years young next Monday and I've been racking my brain trying to decide what to get her as a gift. I'm sure she will receive lots of flowers, plants, chocolates and the odd bottle of wine when a group of us go out for Afternoon Tea with her next week. I pop in to visit her regularly and any cards I send her, she displays for weeks and sometimes months, so I thought I'd make her a selection of birthday cards she can send to friends, together with a book of postage stamps. Here are the cards I made, all designed to send with a regular stamp.
I'm sharing the last card in a few challenges. The Happy Birthday is a preloved Poppystamps 'Happy Birthday Channel' die I bought ages ago. I'd forgotten I had it until I was looking through my dies for a different one, so I used it for the first time on this card. The orange paper and patterned paper was from my snippets drawer, in fact everything on all these cards, apart from the card blanks was snippets. The flower was made with Creative Expressions 'Daisy Blossoms' dies.
I am joining in the following challenges:
A lovely collection of cards and a fantastic idea to give them to your friend as a gift.
