Every now and then I have to do something unconventional. A friend of Mum's celebrates her Birthday this week and I believe she is 92. She lives in Cornwall in a very nice residential home and is quite a character, or certainly was when I last saw her.
I am sure she will get lots of Birthday cards with flowers so I decided she had to have something different. The OCC challenge is for a Window, the Speedy the cat challenge is to use a punch and the Woodware challenge is a sketch. Having recently visited Marwell Zoo the giraffe stamp was the one that shone out. As you can see from the photo above, that Dave took,, their heads were the bit on display and there was a lot of tongue poking out going on!
The paper is from K&Company, the punches used are Martha Stewart and Woodware and the image is from MFP. The sentiment inside says Hello Sunshine, Happy Birthday.
Love your take on the Woodware sketch Janine !! Just a fab idea !!
