I hope you are enjoying your week and getting some crafty time in.
I have made a birthday card for one of my friends that I have known since school, which means that we are all reaching the grand old age of 50 this year (I did mine last year in fact).
This lady is indeed fabulous at fifty, as she has been all her life. In fact even more than me, she just can't be that old!
I used green blue and lilac so I'm entering this into the Less is More challenge this week which is to use three colours or three shades of a colour.
I used my old but still wonderful PearlEx watercolours and painted a piece of card randomly with blue and green. I then die cut the butterfly and swirls and used up the scraps with baby butterflies. I computer generated WordArt greeting and some bling and it's done. Thanks to this card for my inspiration.
Great card Pat, love the pretty butterfly too :) Viv xx
ReplyDeletePat what a super card! Did you grow up in Woking? I went to school there and also hit 50 soon... yikes!

I'm sorry that I'm so late in visiting this time, but a new laptop has taken a little time to set up and get to know!!
