Good advice....

Afternoon all - what a lovely day I've had...I'm at a craft fair in Liss tomorrow so I decided to take an annual leave day today from the job which pays all the bills! I had a lovely lie in, watched some craft TV, got all my cards ready for tomorrow, prepared dinner for some friends tonight, made some yummy brownies and made lots of new cards!! Utter bliss!!

Here is one of my new cards...its a Birthday card which features some good advice....

I love finding new and unique quotes for my cards, as I think they make people smile...this one from Lucille Ball is a perfect example! I decided this was a girlie girl and so I've used two different pink backing papers. I then added my sentiment, which I found using Google.

Finally I thought about what topper I should use to compliment my sentiment and I decided that one of my favourite ways to celebrate my Birthday is with a glass or two of champagne! So I made my champagne bottle and glass out of scrap paper, and once attached I added a little glittler glue to add some sparkle!

I'm entering this card into this week's Cute Card Thursday challenge. Caz is celebrating her 21st wedding anniversary this week (Congratulations!!) and she set the theme for this week's challenge - anniversaries. It doesn't have to be a wedding anniversary...it can be anything you celebrate every year....so I think this fits quite nicely! The DT have all come up with some gorgeous cards, take a peek here to see them all.

I've just had a nibble on the edge of the brownies that I made earlier and they are rather delicious, so I think I'm off for a cup of coffee and a piece of brownie! I hope you all have a lovely weekend, and I'll be back on Monday!

Thanks for stopping by,
