The starting point for this card was one of the smallest pieces in my PHD (projects half done) box. That and a selection from my much under-used patterned paper collection… The “happy birthday” is actually a neat border die (it might have slipped my mind that I actually had this die until I came to… Continue reading Layered fox
Miracles do happen. I have just scheduled the last of my catch-up card blog posts. Yes, it’s true! I have finally written up all the cards I’ve made, every single one that had been sitting on my desk just waiting to be put up on the blog.
