Birthday girl......

Evening peeps, the weekend is here again, that's another month that has flown by, on the plus side we do get an extra hour in bed tonight, well some will. My two grandsons are having a sleepover tonight so after I finally get the pair into bed they might sleep through till 6:00 am. if I'm lucky, I shall have to have a Nana nap in the afternoon.
Todays card was for my daughter's birthday, the stamp is from Chocolate Baroque, I layered up the rose which I coloured in with Prismas.


The half heart was embossed in gold and then I used Twinkling H20s
to water colour paint it.
