2 in 1 & a Special Guest!

I want to dedicate this card to all the lovely people who stopped by to wish me a Happy Birthday. The fact that you took the time a trouble means a lot so Thank You. I will of course be stopping by you all personally too.



This card follows the fab sketch over at the current challenge at Lili of the Valley. I have been dying to ink up this gorgeous fairy. She is totally sweet. Of course I had to glitter her, where is the magic otherwise? The papers are Basic Grey, Wisteria & she is coloured with Distress Inks which qualifies her for entry at A Spoonfull of Sugar. My flowers & buttons are a mix from Crafty Feeling & Hobbycraft.

Onto my special guest. If you haven't already seen it on her own blog, this is the gorgeous birthday card my wonderful friend Dena sent me for my birthday. Can I just say the photos do
not do it justice. It is even more stunning IRL.
I was absolutely thrilled to receive this. The tag pulls out with a lovely message. I just love everything about it. As always I am in awe of her fabulous talent. She is such a warm & generous person. Just pop over to her blog & you'll see what I mean.



So there you go. I'll be back tomorrow, for Crafts 4 Eternity. In the meantime I hope you are all happy & having a great weekend.

Big Hugs,
Andie xx

You and Dena are lucky to have such a special friendship, never take it for granted and treasure it forever! I can see the love that she has put into your birthday card.
I love that little image from LOTV. You've done an amazing job colouring her. And you're right Andie, where would the magic be with no glitter?!

Your card is stunning Andie, I absolutley adore everything about it. and what a gorgeous friend you have in Dena. Her card to you is truly beautiful. I hope you had a wonderful Birthday. If I wasnt such a lazy blogger of late, I would have realised it was your birthday and my wishes to you would not be belated. Big hugs to you xo Jackie
