Allsorts - Make your own background

I have an extra special card to share with you today.

The optional theme at


is to make your own background.

I used lengths of ribbon to make this extra special, purple, shiny, sparkly card for Mollie Rose who is the grand old age of seven on Monday. Not quite sure how our baby Grandaughter has grown so quickly but she certainly has!!



She is a massive fan of all things purple so I gathered together all my purple ribbons and using double sided sheets stuck them down. I drew and hand cut the number seven into shiny purple mirri card (which I managed to photograph without glare!!) and used super sparkly glitter to hide the not so neat cutting. TODAY was die cut and the inny of the number seven was stuck inside.


I hope she likes it!! And I hope you will join us this week, our sponsors are



I will leave you with the upcoming Birthday Girl with her little Brother and Grandma (me) at Christmas.


Thank you for sharing your day with me xx

  3. A lovely photo Sarah and any purple loving 7 year old would love the card, I know a rather older 'child' who would too! They do grow up so fast, our eldest is 14 next, then 7 and the baby will be 2 in a couple of months!! :)
