I simply could NOT miss out on the teaparty this week to wish Eula Cousin's a happy 110th birthday. What an inspiration to read about this dear lady and her bright spirit and sweet attitude toward life and others! I just hope this card gets across the ocean in time!
I went with the colors of the cookies in Cindy's photo and created a feminine card with flowers and butterflies, sponging them while still in the die. I made a frame with flourishes and scoring.
My goodness, just realized there's a dog hair or something across the lense of the camera for this photo - just saving you the trouble of trying to wipe your screen! : )

Your card is pure loveliness......from the colors to the stunning layout and embellishments. Miss Eula will enjoy each lovely layer and butterfly as she feels the love you put into this.

Hello neighbour . What a very dainty and feminine card, indeed.
Got to laugh at the dog hair - I know how often I wonder is it something on my screen or on my photos!

Oh, Bridget, your card winging its way all the way from Ireland , will delight Ms Eula no end - I can almost here her saying of both yours and Sabrina's cards - "Look, these came all the way from Ireland" - love the dainty feminine butterflies and flowers and the sweet wish - HUGS!
