Hi there This week’s card is for my Mum – it’s her birthday today . Happy Birthday Mum, I hope you have had a great day. This photo doesn’t really do the card justice, it’s better in real life. There is no stamping on the outside of the card – just various papers from the… Read More »

Hi there I finally got round to completing this weeks challenge over at TST – not sure where the week has gone! Phil’s twin uncle’s have their birthday next month so thought I’d do this weeks layout with a masculine touch.
