Thinking of You NAN...x

Evening All..
 Three posts in one day I know...

Just wanted to share a card that I have made for my nans birthday in June.

Unfortunately we lost my nan in October last year, so this is her first birthday not being here. I wanted to make a card that was quite bright and happy and with lots of flowers (she loved flowers).  My nan was an amazing person and my greatest friend. I used to see her almost everyday and loved spending time with her.  I miss her dearly and always will.

So this is the card I have made to put on my Nan's memorial stone for her birthday.


The image I have used for this card is a Bugaboo digi.. I have coloured it with promarkers.
The DP's are Summer Goodness by Raspberry Road Designs (a freebie in Quick Cards Mag)
I added flowers from WOC and my stash, ribbon, pearls and a metal charm from my stash.
The Thinking of You sentiment was another freebie in a magazine...

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:


Thank you for visiting my blog today..
Enjoy the rest of your week whatever you are doing.

Hugs Kelly x
