50th for a Forum Friend

I love the sketches on the Sketch Saturday Challenge Blog and thought I could use the current one as inspiration for a 50th Birthday card.As I don't personally know the lady I wanted to keep it fairly simple and flowery!

 

 Papers are from Melody Ross - Lydia collection and the numbers are cut out using Sizzix Eclips and ECAL Software.  Embellished with peel-off sentiment, die cut butterfly, gems and card candi.

Sarah's 15th Birthday!  Having made a chocolate bouquet for Stephen's birthday last week it was only fair to do one for Sarah - so with a change to just chocolates I came up with this one.  Had to make the box as I couldn't find anything suitable to buy in the timescale I left myself!!  Really pleased with it - think practice is making it better and easier.
