Commissioned card for an 80th birthday
Hello bloggers,
Someone asked me to make a card for a man's 80th and this man loves golf. So this is what I turned out with Japanese embellies bought in Indonesia many years ago. After sticking them on, I realized that the cost of the embellies was far more than the price I offered. Never mind. The paper inside the reverse of the white nestie is pearlized blue. It looks like a shop window to me. Aleeza helped greatly with the layout and the embossing as well as the sentiment. She advised that I don't put the numbers to make the recipient feel young. Lol.

Happy Birthday card by Aleeza
Hello dear bloggers,
This card was made by Aleeza, my younger one who is 12. She locked herself in her room while I was busy in my own craft space and gave me strict instructions not to come into her room. Finally, when she did come out, this is what she had in her hand. She made the ice-cream cone on her own and fussy cut it after colouring it in with Lyra pencils.
The sentiment was handwritten as well and a strip of washi tape was stuck at the bottom.
I thought Aleeza did a pretty good job on this one.
