Birthday crosses


I had a birthday card to make for a Priest
recently and this is what I came up with.

The background paper (SU) was wrapped
with some lace then run through my sewing machine.
Next I used a Tutti Designs die to cut
the arch in white then recut to get the crosses
in the matching paper.
I glued onto a page blue background
and layered up with the crosses and
some pearls.
I stamped the sentiment using a set called
Timeless Tulips.
Next I added some flowers cut from
some old SU papers and I coloured
them up with markers and
stuck in place.
His name was generated on my computer.
I finished by adding two gems to the top.

I would like to enter this into
