Sunday 27 July 2014

Hi everybody.  First of all I want to say Welcome to my new followers and also Thank You for all the lovely bloggers who constantly visit and leave such lovely comments.

My card which I would like to share with you today is for a very dear friend who will be 91 in a few days time.  Unfortunately this lovely lady who is so vibrant and alert has virtually lost her sight - so I wanted to use strong colours so that she might be able to see some outline.  The die I have used
is the Spellbinders Heirloom Legacy die along with some flowers from Wild Orchid and ribbon from stash.

Thank you for taking a look.
