A Special Request

I was commissioned to make a card for a friend Tina's mother on her 80th birthday - sounds simple enough. Then Tina said her Mum loved her garden - sounded like a perfect theme for an 80th birthday card for a lady... then she added she also needed it to feature her Mum's favourite TV star - David Boreanaz from Bones - not quite so simple! 

Here is what I came up with in the end: 

I used:
Patterned papers - Basic Grey's Wisteria collection.
Card Blank - Craftwork Cards
Dies - Die-namics for upper, lower case letters and numbers, Memory Box for flowers, gate, fence and leaves
Punches - Stampin' Up - circle and scalloped circle, Woodware - Corner rounder
Ink - Distress Inks
Other - Flat-backed pearls and Stickles

I added a few die cuts and punched shapes to the inside too.

Hope you have a great weekend celebrating Tina's Mum.

Thanks for looking
