Happy Birthday, Gladys!


This is a card I made some years ago, but I am dedicating it to my Facebook group friend in Oz, Gladys, who celebrates her 80th birthday on 26th January. I wanted to make something especially, but time has run away with me this week. She has admired similar cards of mine in the past, so I hope she likes this one. Happy birthday, Gladys! x

Funky Hand digital paper (from the Yule Be Funky CD-Rom), Prima flower, Cuttlebug Fantasy Flower embossing folder, Nestabilities Labels #1, Fiskars Threading Water border punch, Ash branch punch, Stampin' Up scalloped circle punch + two plain circle punches, Inksentials white pen, bit o' string, some tiny rosebuds and gems. And a partridge in a pear tree.
