Present for the birds


I have so many Christmas art sheets from Lili of the Valley so I decided I would make a couple of Christmas cards to share this weekend. This one is from the girlie Christmas sheet. I added lots of sparkle to the snow using a Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen. The gorgeous papers are Echo Park a Perfect Winter. It is actually a scrapbooking pack so the banners you can see are on one of the papers as is the sentiment.  I just added a self adhesive spotty button.

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes for Graham. We went out for breakfast and then visited a garden centre and a couple of other places before coming home. We celebrated last weekend as you may know with a two day break away at Potters and we are going back there on Sunday just for one night to see one of our favourite touring shows That'll be the Day. We plan to get there early on Sunday to have a fun filled day of activities before donning our gladrags and enjoying an evening meal and the show. We will leave after breakfast on Monday as we are out again on Monday night with friends at the theatre to see a play. We also had lunch with my Mum last Thursday and are out with friends tonight for a carvery so the celebrations continue.
