70th Birthday Card

My mum asked me to make a card for a friend of the family who's 70th Birthday falls on the same day as my brothers 50th - still cant believe I'm typing that - it doesnt seem real that my brother is nearly 50!!

Anyhoo here it is - she wanted something a little bit cheeky but still quite plain - hmm see what you think:



The paper is from my stash - sorry cant remember make. The image is a freebie coloured with promarkers, used distress inks on the edge and just centred and typed the sentiment underneath.

I would like to enter this into:

Charisma Cardz - no embelishments


Thanks for looking xx

    Thanks for email Ali! It was an unknown forum to me, I'm sure I hadn't joined, and 18hits in one afternoon was a bit usual! Shame they didn't have my banner!! Great though! I've joined as SpydersCorner now, as it won't let me use Spyder. Hubby does get emails from there anyway, which are very useful!
    Your card is great..it would suit hubby when he get that old!! or even now! He does miss his motorbike!
