60th birthday friend

Hello Everyone, a short post as time is of the essence LOL.

I just wanted to post a card I did very quickly last night, AND to show I am not slacking LOL.

I had an email with apologies at 5.30 last night to let me know that a friend's birthday was on Wednesday and would I make a card for her so that it could be delivered with the flowers we are sending to her, (she is also off sick atmo). It meant that it had to be taken into work today AND Strictly Comes Dancing was at 6.30 aaarrrggghhh!  Well this is what I managed to do after going through a lot of files for something to "click".  The paper is from Miriam Freebies, I added a ribbon, which is practically the same colour, why does that happen when a photo is taken?  and added another layer to the flowers, oh! yes and a bit of net to finish off.  It actually looks much nicer IRL.

I'm not entering any challenges as it's too quick a post to see if one suits!

Hope you all have a good week.

Hi hunny, sorry for being such a bad bloggy friend lately, I just don't know where time goes these days, and with having a poorly Vince too it's all getting a bit much. BUT I am here now, and I am loving your card, such a super design, but then all your work is super. So there. Hugs Sxx
