I have another card made using the beautiful My Minds Eye (MME) papers from my Lost & found, Union Square paper pad. I adore the colours and patterns in this particular pad as it is so versatile. I have used it for 'Moulin Rouge' style cards and also 'Western' (Cowboys & Indians) themed cards and it looks great with either and various others too.
This particular card is for my darling Grandson who will celebrate his birthday this coming weekend. The only trouble is I think I concerntrated more on the papers that his actual age. Nevertheless I am pleased with how it turned out; I love to do different styles and themes. I do hope you like it too.
I used Lily of the Valley Boys Sentiments stamps for the centre and the Happy Birthday greeting was from a Creative Expression stamp plate. The fringing on the bottom was made by knotting small pieces of leather effect cords along one long piece.
Well that's it for today, I know it is a very short one but I am still trying to catch up. However before I go, I would like to welcome my newest followers: Hi all and thank you for your support. Also thanks to everyone again for the lovely emails etc.
Have a wonderful day all. Hugs Linda xx
