Happy 40th!

 Hello Friends!

I hope you are all keeping well and warm wherever you are.

Today is my youngest son's 40th...and I feel ancient as a result...lol . I posted his card three weeks ago (to Australia) and yeah it arrived this week...so glad.

Racking my brain now to remember what I did...note to self....must write it down in future!

For the front of the card inked a newly bought (just for the job really) stencil from Honey Doo Crafts randomly with distress oxide and then layered with the same card as the base card and a sentiment stamped and layered on that, (Crafters Companion but the 'son' stamp was from stash).

Inside stamping this time for the background, same oxide but a confetti stamp from Uniko. Then I stamped bunting, champagne glasses and a parcel (C Comp)cut them out with the corresponding dies, and a place to write my greeting..The pop out 40 is ...you guessed it C Comp. These dies have proved very useful this past couple of years! The 40 is on non shed glitter card in silver and really sparkles though the photo does not show it well.

I hope he likes it! and doesn't think it's too girly..lol Men are so hard to make for aren't they! 

I am hoping we will get to Skype at some point, virtual hugs and everything really, though I think his celebrations have started early!

Have a good weekend everyone and cheers to you if you are celebrating something too.

Thank you for stopping by, 

Crafty hugs
