Fabulous Fashion for a Fab Friend!!

  Hi all I had a great night last night. We went out for a meal and few drinks to celebrate Gail and My 31st Birthdays. It was Gail’s birthday on the 7th and it’s mine on the 18th so we decided to have a combined celebration.   I made her a card and necklace and gave these to her last night. She loved them both.   This is the card I made using Katy Sue Designs and House of Zandra Fabulous Fashion CD .   This is the first card I have made using this cd. I have been wanting it for a while but eventually got it at The Great Northern Papercrafts Show last Sunday. I am really pleased with the results and Gail and the rest of the girls thought it was Fab too which I was pleased about.   Recipe   Papers and Topper – Katy Sue Designs and House of Zandra Fabulous Fashion CD Printing Card and Paper – House of Zandra Cream Paper and Card Pack Base Card - Cream Pearl Cardstock Mats – Burgundy Card From Paper Mill Direct Ribbon – Stash Glaze – Ranger Glossy Accents Glitter – Stic
