UPDATE :- It is a very sad time for me, as Judy and her Mom have decided to close down the store as from 1st October. I have been very happy working with them and their gorgeous images. In fact when they posted up on our DT messages I burst into tears. It will leave a big hole for me. I have worked with a great bunch of girls along the way. I have worked for Judy and her Mom since September 2010. So yes it is two wonderful years. I wish to thank Judy and her Mom as well as Karen and Ruth for the great time I have had.

Richard's 60th Birthday Card

Morning folks. Mixed here today, sun one minute overcast the next. Fingers crossed it will not rain. Hope it doesn't rain on Thursday as hubby and I are going on a guided coach tour to the Cotswold's. My card today was a request from one of the ladies in my apartment block. I made a card for her Daughter's 60th in June and she was thrilled, so she has asked me to do one for her Son in Law. Glad I do something right. Lol!!!

He has two interests, he is a football ref and also a cricket umpire. I couldn't find an image for a cricket umpire so did a comical cricket player. I did find a series of umpire signals so used that as the embellishment. I suppose it would have been better to do it the other way round but I have only just thought of that. Lol!!! If I had a brain I would be dangerous. Anyway I have just popped it up to the lady and she was happy.

My 8 x 8 Easel Card
