Birthday Blues....

Hi all - just thought I would do a quick blog posting before heading off to finish getting things ready for my workshops tomorrow.

I made this card last weekend for a good friend's birthday (got the day completely wrong - her birthday was this weekend, not last!!! Great friend aren't I!! Least I was on time for this one LOL) So this picture has been sitting here all week waiting, waiting....

And now here it is - Ta-da!!!!

Must say, I am very proud of myself with this one - I am very pleased with it. I have gone with blue 'cause she's a real "blue" girl (in favourite colour, that is) Loves blue!! I've also used a couple of different techniques - Faux Border tag, Piercing, Shadowing on background stamp (no it wasn't a mistake LOL) and Dazzling Diamonds all over feature flower. (Does anyone else out there have glitter dust on everything for weeks after, after using Dazzling Diamonds????)

I felt like I had really achieved something with this card when I finished it - that I could really do it!!! :-))) (I did say I was proud of myself didn't I LOL - What's the one I need... YILM - that's it! LOL.

Anyway will be back here soon with a workshop post - see ya then!
