SHABBY CHIC BIRTHDAY CARD


Hi and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

I do hope everyone is keeping well.
Can't seem to get my head around crafting lately, but I had to make a few family Birthday cards so that pushed me into the craft room.
I made this card for my Daughter to give my Granddaughter who's is 33 tomorrow.
I know she doesn't look at my blog so it's okay to show now.



This is a 8"x8" size card.
The papers are from a Paper Boutique pad.
Sorry the inside photo didn't come out very well.
Lace from my stash wooden bird cage from the works.
The large flower is from WOC.
The small ones are Tim Holtz.
Leaves I made.
Pearl corner cut from a large roll of pearls bought at the Range a couple of years ago in their sale.
Cut out some butterflies from the strip of paper used,  and then decoupaged them.
Happy Birthday die Sue Wilson's.

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