Ruby Anniversary

I was asked by the florist if I could make a Ruby Anniversary card for one of her customers. I've used Bazzil Bling cardstock in string of pearls and diva. The pp is a download from Shabby Princess. The image was kindly given to me by Maria, many thanks again Maria. Ive coloured the image using distress inks and a touch of stickles glitter glue. Ribbon is from my local textile store.

Well another weekend is upon us, then the kiddies go back to school...yeeee haaaa!!!....oh that means I go back to work too..booooo hoooo. I must admit, despite the weather being dreadful, I've really enjoyed having the kids home, we've had lazy days and no routines, just go with the flow I am going to miss that. How on earth I'm going to be able to get up at 6.30am Monday morning is beyond me...pmsl!!!!

I hope you all have a great weekend, ttfn xx vicki xx

This is lovely Vicki. I have downloaded this paper too, and you have used one of my favourite Penny Black images. I know what you mean about the lazy days, it's been great, back to work and school on Tuesday. x

gorgeous card Vicki, I love that image and your papers, I haven't forgot about your stamped images, just been so busy with work and the kids, my little one had a fall on Friday and bumped her head so I spent most of the day at A&E. Hugs Jill x
