50th Birthday Card

Hello Everyone,  Hope you are All Well and not like me , been hibernating. Not been so good the last month or two with different things going on in my life. I hate complaining ,so we will not go there and hopefully I can begin to pick up the pieces again.  This was the Card, Bag and Box I made for my youngest daughters 50th Birthday on 20th June.  Made mostly with dies and hand made flowers from Heartfelt Creations Dies. The bag was coffee coloured card that I had in my stash, the beautiful ribbon was from Ribbon Girl and the box contained a little wooden Buddha  as part of her gift along with Donegal Tweed Aran Wrap that was 63 inches long and 24 inches wide and took 22 ball of wool. The the scarf pin was made from beech and complimented the colours in the wrap.  Hoping to have some time to craft this afternoon.  Lots of Hugs and Speak to you All soon again.   Hugs Rita xxxx
