Birthday cake funfold



Back into crafting again now that things are settled I have
a bit more time on my hands.

So I had a variety of cards to make for one of my customers
for Birthdays and Mother's Day and this is one of them.

I have used a Tattered Lace Die for the card shape,
layered up with some retired papers from Stampin' Up!
The flowers have been stamped, punched and coloured using
Flowers of Friendship stamp and punch set.
The little banner was stamped using a set called
Banner Alpha from Pink & Main in calypso coral colours.
I added silver gems to the flowers and finished with some
silver ribbon and a cake cut from same paper pack.
The little candles behind the cake are from
Approaching Perfection stamp set from a Stampin' Up!
sale-a-bration freebie last year.

I would like to enter this into

So we headed to Dublin airport at 6.30 yesterday, in the snow!
All went well but Charlie's first flight was delayed which
caused a knock on effect for her connecting flight in Chicago,
which she missed.😓 Her luggage went missing and she had to get
another flight booked for 6 hours later that evening.
So she spent a long evening keeping in touch and keeping
everything crossed that she would reach her next destination.
And she did, finally, in the early hours of this morning, she landed
in Kansas where her friend was waiting for her.
AND her luggage turned up! Apparently it didn't miss the
connecting flight, go figure!!
But she is safe and happy and we can now relax again!
