Happy 60th Birthday!

 Hello and thank you so much for visiting me.  Here is a card I made for a friends 60th Birthday.




The main image - the gorgeous flower wreath - is from a set called Fragrant Sun from 
Honey Doo Crafts.  I stamped it in Nocturn Versafine Clair and embossed it with clear powder and coloured it in with Sentimentally Yours watercolour pens.  I stamped a tiny part of the image in each corner to add interest.  The sentiment is from various stamps in my stash with the '60' being cut using number dies.  The sentiment circle and numbers are cut using snippets of white card with the numbers being coloured using the same colour as the pink flowers - as is the pink mat. Finished off with glitter dotted about for sparkle.  I adore this stamp.  Its quite a recent addition to my stash and I think its become a firm favourite - I can imagine it done in all sorts of colour combos for many occasions.

I would like to enter the following challenges.

Stamping Sensations - Favourite Stamps.
Darnell's NBUS Challenge - Never Before Used Schtuff.

I hope you are keeping well and coping ok with whatever restrictions you have where you are.  They are well worth it and absolutely necessary to stay safe these days.  Hopefully the vaccine will make a difference over time and things will be safer.  We can but hope and keep our fingers crossed!

Thanks again for visiting me.  Take care and stay safe.  Hugs.  Christine xxx
