TPS Birthday card

Gosh, something other than a Christmas card is a nice little change hehe! I remember a couple of years ago I struggled to create Christmas cards, not sure why but this year I have made about 30 I think!! I just can't stop hehe and I have so many gorgeous Christmas images that inspire me so that's helped my mojo.

Make It Crafty Christmas card

Hi Crafty friends,

I must confess I am pretty proud of my colouring here, this is the first time I have attempted to colour such an intricate image and as I'm so far removed from an artist I think I did pretty well, hope that doesn't sound conceited hehe.
