Tonight we are celebrating him with his favourite dinner (that I cook) ... shrimp linguine. There's also a very special cake from Chez Christophe called Gianduja Cherise - hazelnut mousse and cherry confit. Doesn't that sound delicious??!! Gord's all-time favourite flavour --- cherry ... favourite nut - hazelnut. You gotta love it! :)
For the card ...
I used a new-to-me image from Penny Black, called Unwind, along with it's matching die. I stamped in black ink and watercoloured with Distress Inks. I had so much fun making this card. I've been away from card making for a long time and I'm just getting my feet wet making a few this week. Even though all my supplies aren't fully unpacked, I have found enough for a couple of cards and hope to be making and sharing more cards soon.
Close-up ...
I'm sending this card to the following challenges:
1) NBUS Challenge #73 - the stamp, die and embossing folders are NBUS!
2) Seize the Birthday #302 - Milestone ... how perfect is that??!!
Thanks for stopping by!
