Yesterday was our friend Patrick's birthday.
Since Patrick's illness in May last year (meningitis) he is now blind.
I made this card using the Timeless Type Junior Alphabet Medium Sizzlits dies
(now retired) with the Champagne Glimmer paper, in the hope that he would
be able to feel the greeting, even though he cannot see it.
The colour combo is Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla
with of course the Champagne Glimmer.
It was really difficult lining up these letters
(and I can see that the "d" in birthday is wonky!!)
Don't think that Patrick noticed it though.
what a gorgeous card ..he will love it but such a sad read..such a cruel illness ... happy new year sweetie hugs sassyxxxx
