Good morning all.
My Aunt will be 90 on Friday so the beginning of a new decade for her. She still has all her marbles but unfortunately no short term memory so has been in a nursing home for some years. Hopefully I'll be going down to see her on Saturday, weather permitting!
This is the card I made for my Mum to give her.
Using a gorgeous decoupage from Faerie Poppets. Dies are all from Spellbinders; embossing folder from Couture Creations; punch from Martha Stewart; ribbon and pearls from my stash and sentiments are computer generated.

Good snowy afternoon Carol,
ReplyDeleteLove everything about this it is so beautifully delicate .
Knee deep in the white stuff, trapped at the moment so plenty time for crafting but really can't be bothered. Sitting in front if a roaring fire. Only thing that makes you sleepy....................what an excuse for laziness.
Keep warm and keep crafing!!!
