A couple of Birthday Cards I have made ..........

I made this card using the new Do Crafts Art Deco pack of

backing papers and decoupage sheets, finishing off the card

with the letters and numbers sheet that also came with the pack.

This card is for Barry's son's girlfriend who is 21 on Christmas Day

A Birthday Card for my dear Dad

For this card for my Dad I used an embossing folder with Happy Birthday written all

one of the stands and saw this for £1.00 !!! yes a £1.00

Am pleased with the way both cards have come out
