21st Card

Well I managed to get the card done and finished today. Keep looking at it and I am still unsure of it. The colours are great but I still think there is something not right! But I am not starting another card now - its her birthday tomorrow - and I really dont have the time to do it tonight - loads to do (ironing arrggghhhhh). So fingers crossed she will like it anyway!

The papers I used were Die Cuts With A View adhesive prints, used my Quickutz and some satin ribbon. I printed the 21 directly onto the paper and then cut it out.

PIRATES AHOY

Avie was invited to Nathans 5th Birthday Party yesterday (Saturday) and the theme was Pirates.

All the kids were dressed up (a few as Captain Jack Sparrow) and they all looked great. You will have to forgive me but I didn't take my camera (no change for me then). I managed to get some of Avie before she left and I thought she looked so cute.

The sword by the way was a last minute thing (trust me). I found last years Halloween Scythe which was promptly cut down. I changed the handle on it with a bit of double sided sticky tape and some gold and brown ribbon, the result wasn't too bad - in other words it lasted the party and never fell apart.
