Daughter's Birthday Card

This is the card I made for my daughter who is 16 today. I could not put it up until she had opened it! She was delighted with her presents, which she insisted on opening at 6am this morning! LOL Even her sister got out of bed, which is unheard of! We are going out for a meal on Sunday with family and friends. Unfortunately my daughter is doing her mock exams at the moment so has to concentrate on revising.






Thought you would like to see this card. This is one of my favourites I have made, its all my own design and I am really pleased with how it came out.

Willow Sketch No.4

Here is my card, made with some lovely papers that came free in the Cardmaking & Papercraft Magazine. The papers were designed by the lovely Sharon.
