Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Hey all, Sorry it has been a few days since my last post - we are currently going through the joys of changing internet provider and have therefore been without my laptop for a day or two... but now i'm back!

I hope you're all having a wonderful jubilee weekend. Shame about the weather, but nethertheless we've still been making the most of some time off! Today we went to visit hubby's nanny and grandpa, as it is his grandpas birthday on Tuesday (we're going on a babymoon to Bath) so needed to drop his gift, card and cake around today. So today i have the card i made for him, featuring the 'Need for Speed' stampset - perfect for masculine makes:


On a piece of 'Bashful Blue' card i stamped the aircraft image from the 'Need For Speed' set three times in 'Basic Grey' ink. I stamped the 'happy birthday' and 'Grandpa' sentiments from 'For my Family' set (using 'Night of Navy' ink.) I tore the edge of this card, layering it onto a piece of 'Night of Navy' and then a piece of 'Red Riding Hood'. I punched three holes into the 'Red Riding Hood' card and placed three brads through and then wrapped some 'Linen Thread' around several times, tying it off in a bow. Finally i glued this all onto a 'Night Of Navy' cardbase.

I hope Frank has a lovely birthday Tuesday, and i promise my posts will be more regular! Hope you didn't miss me too much! xxxxx
