60TH BIRTHDAY CARD FOR MY MOTHER IN LAW

Good Evening Bloggers from wet, windy and cold Bridgend, South Wales!

I can't believe it is the longest day today, we've hardly had any Summer!

Anyway, staying with cards from yesteryear this is a card I made for my Mother In Law's 60th birthday which was 7 years ago so back in 2005.  This has got to be one of my very first cards and I remember feeling quite proud of myself because I dreamt this up myself!

I've been to my weekly Scrapbooking class this morning which I've been attending for about 6 years so sometime in the future I will post some pictures of my layouts.  There's not enough hours in the day! 

If you would like to see a bigger picture of the card just click on it to enlarge!

    I wish my first card looked half as good as yours does - lovely colour and design. It's interesting to look back and see how our creations change over time.
    Thanks for visiting my blog, hope you enjoy it. Helen (Sydney)
