Flying by......

....with a birthday Hi!!!
This was the card I made for Geoff who entered the "naughty forties" recently!!
I have used the fab stamp from Penny Black called "Hedgehopper" , on the actual stamp it does have a trail of hearts floating out the back but I chose to use a birthday banner instead, I think it works quite well especially for those man cards!!
Just a quick visit from me today as unfortunately my mum is still in hospital and there hasn't been much progress and she is in a lot of pain. It is heart braking to see her as she is normally a very strong person.
Thank you all very much for your get well wishes for her.
I will be entering my card into the following challenges
Penny black saturday - anything goes
Crafty your days away = birthday celebrations
Just some lines- outdoor/summer colours
Papertake weekly - anything goes
Apologies if i haven't visited you recently will do my best to catch up with you all x

  7. Hello hello hello my little fruit bun!
    Perfect card not just for a 40th birthday celebrations but you've also nailed the 'tricky guys' card too.

    I'm so sorry to hear you Mum is still in hospital, I expected her to be out ages ago and well on the road to recovery. Fingers crossed that she starts to make some progress soon and is well enough to come back home again.

    Love & hugs
