A VERY Late Blog Waltz!!!

Hi fellow Waltzers, I am very late in posting this, life I am afraid has just got in the way - not to mention pesky husbands, pesky mid-life birthdays, and pesky other stuff!!!

Anyhow, I think I have recovered from the shock of turning 40 this week, (I can't believe it, there must be some mistake!), and think I have got all the partying and celebrating out of the way, and finally finally made a card! Phew!

Based on nothing in particular, it's for my lovely hubby who has spoilt me rotten this week.




Using the Labels 5 set, I repeatedly stamped one of the beautiful flourishes onto some gold cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black. I stamped the label onto the same card with the same ink, cut out and layered it onto a textured card, which I bought from my local craft shop in their reduced bin, so not sure what the make is.

The sentiment is from Say it With Style stamp set, still one of my favourites, and one that I use most often.




Corner chomped the edges, added some rhinestones, layered it up, and good to go!

Thanks for looking (even though I'm 24 hours late, a record even for me!), and have a great weekend.

Great card! Love how you made the bg with the swirls/flourishes! ...and the little Gemstones give a nice and elegant touch!
I past the 40th looong time ago - do not worry, it't only a number - you are as young as your heart tells you ;-)
