the card that was late but brought a smile

Last week I was made aware of a birthday of a lovely person at the surgery I work at.  So I decided to make her a card. 

I embossed the card using Tim Holtz embossing folder, added a die cut circle (made from the divider from a chocolate box, what a womble I am, a trait I share with my fab friend Gab). Flowers were then made from a popular soft drinks can and scraps of paper, using Tim Holtz die.

A globe was die cut, from a dictionary page left over from craft day and distress inked with vintage photo. So, this creation was mostly made from leftovers - do I qualify for a Blue Peter Badge (do they still do them?)

Looking at the last few posts, I seem to have a thing for flowers, mmm I will try to use a different theme next time.  With a birthday coming up hopefully I will be given some crafty stuff to play with!

Anyhow, The card had the desired effect, and made her smile.  So for something that didnt take long, the effect was worth it, as the adverts say "priceless".
