Well, you know you've made it in the card making world when your boss asks you to make a card for his secretary's 60th birthday! I've been lacking inspiration this last two weeks or so due to having a mega bad cold and sinus infection. I've also been working on mass producing my wedding invitations (which I'm starting to think I should have made simpler!) so with all that I haven't done much crafting.
I used this week's Sketch Saturday sketch and took inspiration for the colour combo from last year's IB&C and Julie's blog
