Happy Birthday

Evening Everyone,
Long time no see.
I've been suffering with a cold for the last few weeks which has just about wiped me out.
Yes I know it's only a cold, inconvenient and annoying, but I was getting fed up with coughing and spluttering.
Still I seem to be just about back to normal now. I'm late with my snail mail cards, so things must be back to normal lol.

Here is a card that should have been delivered today.
In my defence this one should have been hand delivered to two young men who come in to the garage on their way to school.
The traffic was appalling this morning so I assume that they were running late and Mum didn't have time to stop. Never mind they will just have to extend the celebrations in to tomorrow, when hopefully they will have time to stop by.

The main image is a pre-coloured topper from Lili of the Valley die cut using one of my circular nesties.
The main sentiment is from an old Hobby Art clear stamp set.

The background to the card has been made using a Clarity leafy stencil and some dye based inks. I added a hand drawn border using a micron pen and coloured pencils.

I also added a little gold gilding wax (which doesn't show up in the photos) and some tiny stamped sentiments from a Woodware stamp set.
I hope that they have had a wonderful day today, along with my crafty friend Cheryl and of course her Majesty.

Weren't they lovely pictures of her and the Great/Grandchildren in the papers today?
Have a great evening what ever you are doing.
Hugs Kimx
