Sorry for the very bad photo - am not sure why the flowers have such a washed out look. This card is already on its way, so I can't re-do it! I wanted to make a very special card for our daughter's 60th birthday. (No, I can't believe it! And, yes it does make me feel a bit older - but she hasn't stopped having another birthday each year!) This is a f
ront-step card - I was inspired when I saw this beauty -
Cheribdesigns. However, I am sure I did not correctly follow her instructions. The
stamp is one by Northwoods - a yard sale purchase for 25 cents! The
sentiment die is by Sizzix, and the
bunnies, butterfly and flowers from a selection of
no-name dies. I made the base so it opens from the right side, with a computer generated verse inside. This card could illustrate a
pastime of gardening - or is it sitting by the mailbox waiting for my latest stamp order?

such a lovely card, the number on the mailbox is perfect finishing touch.
Thank you so much for sharing with at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Have a great day x
Super card for your daughter. Mine refuses to budge from 27yrs which means I'm also stuck at 52yrs which suits me just fine!! I looked at the instructions and tried doing that fold myself. You didn't make a mistake as the measurements also needed a score line at 10.5" to make it sit flat. Works fine then. Thankyou for coming and spinning the butterfly wheel this week. Hugs Mrs A.
A really lovely creation for your daughter and our 'Feature a creature' theme at Penny Black and More, many thanks for joining in.
