Well ... here it is!

80th birthday card for a dear friend. I have made it in book form because I wanted it to reflect people/places that are or have been important in her life.

Front Cover




Detail of Foxgloves



Opening Page (with a few details blocked)


Made little flaps on some of the inner pages to give a few 'secret' bits to add interest.

Redcar




Her favourite owl


Her lovely garden


Friends - various!




They just had to be in!


Back Cover

How lovely ... it's better than This Is Your Life.
It must have taken hours to design, let alone create. You know, that will be a card to treasure and dwell over fondly many times.

I bet she'll love it. I would.

Re: Well ... here it is!

Thanks, Morti, took ages collecting all the photos (most of them are mine) and making the Foxgloves was a task and a half - but - I think she will like it. Must put it somewhere safe now until the day (beginning of Oct) and must buy some large (A1) card to make it a box.

Silver Tabby...what a wonderful surprize for your friend, she is a very lucky lady, to have a friend as thoughtful as you. I just know, that she's going to love this card and cherish it forever...

I have a friend that makes these beautiful cards also...and every year, I look forward to receiving one of them for my birthday and at Christmastime...
