I am at my DD's again, 'minding the store' and the pup and I have done a lot of finger crossing that I am able to post this from her PC...so if you are reading this....yipppeee :-)
My dear friend Barb will be celebrating her 70th birthday on Tues.
This is a 200mm sq card with matching box.
For such a special birthday I wanted to do something special so I hope she likes this.
I made an 'enamelled' flower with the old dipping in Uttee technique - it is 50mm across and once again as my 'tools' do not include a punch or die of this size I made me own template. I cut the flowers from some paper with music notes but after all the utteeing no one would guess.
Once again a homegrown sentiment, this time stretched to an oval to fit the challenge sketch. Of course it needed bling :-)
Flowered paper from TLC
Monogram added digitally.
Seam binding ribbon
Homemade stick pin
Netting from one of those shower scrunchie thingamabobs - 29p from Home bargains :-)
A closer look at my flower
Thank you for stopping by and for all the much appreciated comments on previous postings
Cheers me dears :-)
