Good Morning
There is a new challenge over at Inspiration Station and I was in desperate need of some inspiration for a birthday card for a friend. This is the photo to inspire us:
The friend I've made the card for is a huge fan of Strictly and dances herself, so I thought this was a great image to use. The pattern is from Stitchingcards.com, stitched using metallic threads and then matted onto some pearlescent purple card from my stash.
Thanks for visiting.

My card for today is the card I have made my hubby for Valentine's Day next week. On the 9th February it will be 38 years since we started going out together!
I followed the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches and got further inspiration from Inspiration Station - it inspired me to use items from my Kanban 'Love Your Pets' collection for this card.
I used an EK punch to create the border and added Peel Offs. The little bones were die cut from little snippets of black card with dies from Creative Crafting World, and the hexagonal mats they're sat on are also dies from CCW, cut from snippets of silver mirror card.
I added a matching insert to complete the card:
