I hope you've all had a great week. I have: the beginning of the week was spent in the Cotswolds for a nice relaxing break with my hubby & Friday was my birthday which was spent with my friend Kelly & her little boy & also my brother & nephew. Then I spoke to my darling grandchildren (& son & DIL) on the webcam & we went out for a lovely meal in the evening. GUESS what I got for my birthday - lots of crafty goodies lol (I've finally upgraded my Zip-e-Mate to a Big Shot). Anyway that also explains why I haven't blogged anything for a week (& also why I haven't been able to comment but I am trying to catch up now).
This card was made for the Sentimental Sundays challenge which is Monochromatic, I found this image on The Graphics Fairy Blog (& the label image too) & just added a touch of metallic rub-ons. I used some Muslin, a small doily, flowers, greeting & I made a decorative pin using a headpin & some beads (from my jewellery making stash). I decorated the inside very simply to match.

Oh Tracey...what a howler...SORRY! You can't stick Muslims to your card hun! I'm sure there's a law against that kind of abuse!!! I am intrigued though as to how you stuck them down & how you're gonna get a muslim stuck to your card in an envelope!!!
