SISTER'S ANNIVERSARY CARD


Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

I would like to welcome my newest followers, and thank you so much for pressing the button to follow me.
I am not sure if some of you have blogs as I can't seem to find you so I can follow you also.
If you read this please let me know your  blogs if you have one.

Well it's nearly the weekend again, and where oh where has another week gone to.

We have had a bit of a mad week this week, and wanted to get some food shopping done, and it was one of those weeks when everything happened first of all I had my Grand Children Monday and Tuesday.
Then our immersion water heater broke down, but we weren't sure if it was the thermostat or the heater unit.
So it was like the there's a hole in my bucket song.
First the electrician, then the plumber to drain the water tank, and now we have to wait for the electrician tomorrow again, but did manage to shop this lunchtime thank goodness as supplies were getting to a desperate situation, as I hadn't done a big shop for a couple of weeks. 
In between we were asked to perhaps bring our Daughter's fiance home from hospital too.

So here is the Anniversary card I made for my sister, and her husband which was on the 15th of this month.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
The lovely coloured card is Hunkydory pearlised card.
I cut a circle aperture out of white card, and then added my lace die cuts glued to the inside of the aperture.
Finally I added some die cut filigree leaves to the outside edges that came with the Tattered Lace Shabby Offset Oval Die that I used for the lace.

Thank you so much for your visit , and precious time.
I really do appreciate every visit , and wonderful comment.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
