An 80th birthday card ... and a bonus piece of ribbon

Mum has asked me to make an 80th birthday card for one of her friends. A simple aperture card with a piece of K & Co Addison paper, a few blooms and a bit of Poundland bling (and the 80 in silver stands out a bit more irl):



The other day I bought a pair of PJs (cost me £5) which were done up with this long piece of ribbon - I measured it this morning - it's 66 inches long - so not a bad bonus!

  2. What a pretty shade of blue for that card Hazel,, love it! Aren't bonus ribbons great? DH often buys me choccies when he travels - Godiva are fab chocs and even better because they have a decent length of chocolate brown grosgrain round the box!

  4. It's funny you should say that, Kathy - John said: 'I suppose you'll want to go and buy another pair so you can get some more ribbon'!
