HI girls, I am now able to post a photo of my mum's 70th Birthday card as it was her birthday celebration last week and I don't have to worry about her seeing her card on my blog!
I used my favourite card design which is basic black card blank with a whisper white insert which was edged with the Martha Stewart Dolly Lacce punch (I am expecting a delivery of these this week and will be selling them for £15.99!) I then used some scrap pieces of patterned paper and the nestabilites scallop die. I had some chipboard numbers which I heat embossed on gold and I finished the card off with a piece of gold ribbon and the two lovely butterfly stamps which I also heat embossed in gold. I love how clear and crisp the butterflies embossed which were FREE in a hostess set from the Stampin Up catalogue. If you would like the chance to get your hands on some FREE STAMPS then why not host a workshop?
DONT FORGET – I am also offering FREE P&P on all Stampin Up orders placed between April 22nd-24th in celebration of my Open House on the 30th April. Contact me to place and order or receive more details about the Open House on michelle@cbdesign.org.uk or 07905 653353.
Thanks for looking x

Beautiful card Michelle, I love black cards and what
ever colour you choose to put with it just contrasts
so well!
Good luck with your open house, lovely idea just wish
I wasn’t so far away.

Another gorgeous card Michelle – I’m sure your Mum loved it but I know from experience non crafters (not your Mum of course) don’t always appreciate the thought and work involved in a handmade card or gift.
I agree with Vicki – I wish I could come to your open house! Its a great idea, but I’m in North Wales!! Oh well……
Lovely Card has given some inspiration for an upcoming 70th birthday I have
thanks again
