21st birthday

For the first time ever, i was asked to make a card on behalf of someone else!! it was a lovely confidence boost, but also very nerve racking, it would not be good to muck up for someone else!! i didn't have much to go on design wise but anyway heres what i came up with...

the backing paper is by K & Co from my huge 'best of' stack :), the butterflies, letters and numbers are from the double sprinkles of kraft cd rom by polka doodles and the flowers are some hunkydory ones i had floating around my stash.

i got to use my brand new bigshot (even though its not my birthday yet..hehe) to make the mount for the '21' to live on. this card ended up very pink, which i haven't really done before, but i took my cue from the polka dots in the '2' and went from there. all in al i must say i am very pleased with this card, i almost didn't want to hand it over!!!

Thankfully i was not the only one pleased with my results the card has been very well received, so i am smugly relieved at the moment...until i have another crisis of confidence that is!
