True Gentleman Birthday Card

29 April, 2018 by lizyuille Leave a Comment

29 Apr

Yesterday I showed you the box I made for the book my husband and I are giving a friend of ours, whose birthday is today. Now I have the matching card to go with this.

True Gentleman Birthday Card

This is a very straightforward card, but with the benefit of hindsight, I chose the wrong patterned paper for it – the rigt suite, just the wrong pattern. Having decided to add a detailed die cut, I would have been better with one of the plainer patterns, but I had already got in my mind that I was going to use the same pattern I used for the box……

I added multi-purpose adhesive sheet to the back of the Champagne Foil (which matches this suite so well), so adding the die cuts was a dream, even for the detailed ‘Happy Birthday’, just remember that wieht the added thickness you may not cut all the way through to the back of the adhesive sheet, but you will still cut through the foil easily, so that is no problem. Oh, and did you spot it is our friend’s 60th?

Quick, easy, and with the right pattern of paper, really effective!! Oh, and, the Large Numbers Dies are retiring, so please, if you want these, get them NOW

DON’T FORGET
For
every £25 you spend in April AND use the Hostess Code, you will be
entered into a draw to win the Many Marvellous Markers, so if you
place orders of £50, you will get 2 entries, £75, you will get 3
entries etc. BUT if you place a single order of over £150 and opt to
be your own Hostess (which means you pick how to spend your Rewards)
you will only get ONE entry into the draw. Please note that this is a
gift from me, and is non-returnable. The usual Customer Gifts will
not be effected by the Prize Draw, so if you use the Hostess Code you
will get a share of the Rewards, as usual. EVERYONE who shops with me
will receive a handmade card and gift in the middle of the following
month, regardless of how much you spend.
If
your order is over £25 (plus P&P), please use the Hostess Code:
SMQ7N7UR
To
share in the Hostess Rewards for this month AND become a VIP. If your
order is over £150 (plus P&P), please don’t use the Hostess Code
as you will get to pick your own rewards, but don’t worry, you will
still become a VIP Reward Member.
The
Starter Kit is ALWAYS the best deal in the Catalogue and great value
at just £99 for your choice of £130 of products (with no additional
P&P). Once you are a Member of this great Family, you get a
discount on your future purchases, or an income from sales you make
to other people; Win,Win Right?

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
