Special Card for a Special Person!

Hello Everyone, I hope your weekend is going well so far and that you are all tickity boo.
It's a lovely day here, infact the weather has been good all week, a little warmer and sunny, good enough to get the washing out some days.

Thank you to everyone who visits and leaves such lovely encouraging comments on my cards, I do so appreciate it.

I've not been in the craft room much lately, only to make the cards that I need, and this is one of them for Moreen's birthday.

This is a lovely stamp set from Honey Bee, lots of stamps in the set and all Kitties. Once stamped on to water colour paper I coloured with Watercolour Zig pens, adding WoS to add sparkle. Added some tiny gems and mounted on to lilac card. 
Gina K Rose Swirl EF with DI for the background and a lovely heart pearl in the corner. Chocolate Baroque for the sentiment.
I found this card blank hiding away, it is from a very old collection of Hunky Dory cards, but thought it would look good.  Moreen loves cats so I know it's safe.

Going over to see them all later today. It was Damian's birthday yesterday, but because he was down in London for work I didn't get to see him on his birthday....first time in the 49 years he's been around.  He was too late home to go over and no doubt very tired, as he was away on the first plane out( I heard it go over) and home on the last plane back to Inverness, a very long day for him.

Well, it's Burn's Day here in Scotland so we are having the traditional Burn's Supper meal tonight, Haggis, neeps and tatties, and I just might make some whisky sauce.

Anyway, that's me for now, enjoy your day, keep well and hope to see you soon,

Happy Burns night Kate, your traditional meal sounds wonderful, especially with the whisky sauce yummy. We had it at Dalhousie Castle at my Niece's wedding and loved it. Shame about the birthday boy being absent, it doesn't get easier, no matter what age, to have them missing a special occasion. I bet you'll make it up for him LOL.
Your card is just perfect and special for your friend too.

Super sweet and delicate card, love the pastel tones behind the topper and the cute kitties in the boot make me smile! Lovely colouring!
Best wishes for Damian's birthday, it seems that he is very bus with his work, such a shame he couldn't spend time with parents for his birthday!

What a delightfully sweet card for Maureen, lovely bright colours too.
The money raised over the world for our country is definitely helping out at the animal shelters to now feed them so they don't starve. Particularly Kangaroo Island which had a huge population of Koalas, now dwindled down dramatically. Every one is doing their best and it is noted that the world is helping...volunteers are going over to the island to help also to feel the wild life and regain their existance...xxx
