OLDIE FOR FRIDAY

Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
Thank you so much for your visit, and time.
It is much appreciated.

Well it's Friday and time to join Erika HERE with an Oldie for Friday.
It's been a few weeks since I was able to join in.
Today is my eldest Granddaughter's Birthday, and she turns 29 today.
So here is a card I made her a long time ago.

  
This is my usual fave size 8"x8".
The doily at the back I embossed from a special touch mask, and cut out by hand with a craft knife.

Thank you again for you visit.
I do hope you all have a wonderful day, and the weather is being kind to you.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
