It is my lovely niece Rebecca's 18th Birthday today. Just don't know where the time goes it's scary, only seems like yesterday I was cradling her in my arms after she had come home from the hospital.
Me and Dad won't get to see her until the weekend so has helped as been poorly for a few days and got behind with making her cards.
Rebecca absolutely loves cats (just like her Auntie lol!) so thought I would make at least one of her cards with one on.
MATERIALS I USED
PLAIN IVORY CARD FOR THE EASEL
IVORY & PINK BAZZILL CARD
MY MINDS EYE PATTERNED CARD
K&CO BROWN PAPER FOR PAPER PIECING THE CAT
HELZ CRUPPLEDITCH COCO CAT STAMP
LOTV CIRCULAR STAMP
PRIMA FLOWERS
WILD ORCHID ROSES
SPELLBINDERS CIRCULAR SCALLOP, CIRCULAR & LACY SQUARE NESTIES
HAT PIN & BOWS FROM STASH
GLOSSY ACCENTS
STICKLES (EUCALYPTUS, PINK & DIAMOND)
PROMARKERS
Just thought I would show you a picture of Miss Simone posing with the card!!!!
I would like to enter my card into these challenges;
PAPERTAKE WEEKLY - Anything goes with the addition of a heart or love theme (I have a heart on the flower pot)

Hope everyone is keeping warm as it's set to get to -13 this week according to weather reports, brrrrrr!!!!.

Hi Clare, gorgeous card and happy birthday to your niece. Good luck with the bid, I'm having a clear out and have so many unused stamps, would rather they went to a loving home! I will be adding more over the next few days
