A blingy birthday card

This is the second of the "Animal Antics" cards I told you about last week. There's plenty of time for you to join in with us at Stamping Sensations with your take on this month's theme and the chance to win a £35 gift voucher for Crafty Individuals. Now back to the card. My mil loves a bit of bling, so that's the inspiration behind this card for her birthday, even though it's not my usual style. Actually, it's really not my type of card at all if I'm honest.

"Have a blingy birthday!"

Flaming June it ain't! We have been having some terrific thunderstorms this week. Still, everything is growing well with all this rain so it's not all bad. Fingers crossed for some better weather later in the Summer and lots of blingy blooms :-)

  13. It's very cute, love the little hedgehog and you have done really well with the bling. We have had all the rain storms here too and although the garden looks really green and healthy we have had an invasion of slugs....
