DS is turning sixty! Her life has been a bit of a roller coaster but she is in the enviable position of having a career that is fun and allows her to travel the world over. She was never one to be stuffy and can laugh at herself, so I thought that this sentiment would work for her. Did I say that she also consults for Hallmark? If not perfect, her cards need to be interesting...
PC generated the sentiment and cut with the Nestie. Drew page lines with my Copic Multiliner 0.1 mm and gilded the pages to represent the rare first edition that she is. Lightly sponged. Matted with BG Marrakech DP. Cut the diagonal piece from more of the same DP pad and mounted on Prima marketing uptown DP. Matted all and mounted on a PTI cream card. She is an enthusiastic (read rabid) NY Mets fan, ergot the color choices. PT - 2
Thanks Roxie for this interesting sketch...much appreciated today! Thank you all so much for looking. Have a peaceful day.

Marie, this is a fabulous card for your sister! She must be a very interesting gal! Happy Birthday to her! I'm sure she will love and appreciate the love and thought that you put into her card. Love your sentiment and the open book nestie that you used. The gilded edges are a perfect touch.
