Birthday Box xx

Hello everyone

Sorry I haven't been about, we managed to get away for a few days and was soooooooo busy right before we left! Was just lovely to sit back, do some walking and find some normality all while staying away from people! Bliss

Today I wanted to share a wee Exploding Birthday Box I created a few weeks back! 

I actually made 3 cards for this amazing lady, this was for her daughter to give! Plus a card from hubbies Mum to send and one at the last minute from her partner! It was all hush hush and she could't believe they had all contacted me to create something Special for her 70th Birthday!

I used some of my favourite Time for Tea Designs Digi Stamps coloured with my Spectrum Noir Classiques, the Butterflies are an old Crafter's Companion die, some beautiful Carta Bella 12x12 papers, Mulberry Flowers, gems and lots and lots of glitter!

The other two cards I will share over the next few weeks with you all! All different too!

Well I need to get back too work, creating a wee Fairy House and working with some fab new bits and bobs that I can't wait for you all to see!

Stay safe and keep crafting

Can I just thank the lovely ladies that commented on my last post! They really brightened my day! And MagsB sorry to disappoint but that is definitely not me and hubby lol!! With poor hubby working so hard just now it'll be him asleep or pricing jobs at one side of the couch and me at the other with a dog snoring in between us! But we do have a nice wee night away to look forward too in March so who know hehhhe

Today I wanted to share the card I made for my Granpa back in January, now please note Hubby picked the image and my Gran thought it was just like him minus the bread hehhehe

 

The image is Gnome Mountain from the lovely Some Odd Girl and coloured with my Spectrum Noirs and the papers are Simple Stories Bloom and Grow ehhh and sentiment my own handwriting hehhehe
