Today I have made this card for my DH for his 65th birthday next month. I tried to make it yesterday but it just wouldn't work and then today it all went together just as I wanted. As you can guess from the card Music is his 'thing' so I hope he likes this card.

Once a week I go to a little craft group at my church. People do various crafts - whatever they enjoy. Today I made this parchment card. I hope you like it.This weekend I plan to start work on a birthday card for my DH. He will be 65 next month and I have a special card planned for him.

Had quite a productive day today. I made 5 cards for swaps which I obviously can't show until they arrive. I also made this for a birthday card. I used a sketch that a friend sent me. The brown central paper is sprayed with mica pigment to make it sparkle. The lilac/white horizontal strip is cut from a tissue box and the oval topper is 'recycled' from another card. I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of white card which I tore and then inked the edges with distress ink. I hope you like it.

Not crafting today. Fell down in the street yesterday when I was walking Minstrel. Have a very bruised and skinned knee and bruises in various other places. Hope it is better by tomorrow as I have my card making group at church. I am sure that God will enable me to get there.
