50th Birthday

My cold is worse today: Feel dreadful and HAD to get my Sister-in-law's 50th card made: Would like to have made something really special but just not up to it at the moment so I have relied on this handmade petal paper and Heidi Swapp bling to carry the show with some ribbon and a flower I put together from a Making Memories Blossoms & Buttons box. The bottom flower is traced from the MM felt one on to the same paper as on the card and inked with Colorbox Rose Petal chalk ink. All held together with a Doodlebugs brad. Sentiment is Doodlebug rub-ons with 50 cut on Cuttlebug from same paper as on card and inked like the flower and covered with holographic glitter glue to give it the same shiny glittery look as the brad. It's A5 and lined with the same rose petal paper.
