A Magical Birthday Card

Hi Everyone, I'm finally back on my blog *wait's whilst everyone recovers from shock*

It's been a while, I know - things are still hellish around here. Nan is still desperately unwell and I'm unemployed in 6 weeks :S again! grrr!

But rather than dwell on the negative, I finally got around to making a friends birthday card and it's all about Harry Potter - she's the same age as me (mid 20's) and one of the biggest Harry Potter fan's I know. It was the perfect excuse to use the magical trio from Tiddlyinks, throw in the knarley tree [which reminds me of the whomping willow] and a border from the steampunk victorian range and this is what I came up with:
The image is coloured with promarkers and I added some leaves cut from SU paper, using my cuttlebug dies. I added some sparkle with star dust stickles and that was it. I kept it plain so that she could keep in on display as long as she wanted - as it isn't clearly just a birthday card. I hope she likes it and I hope you do too.

Take care and see you again soon (I hope)
Happy Crafting! x
