But recently I did get to make a card for a very special person's birthday. It was quite interesting because that person actually left a message on my blog a few days ago about her coming to visit and never seeing anything new. So Lin, this one's for you!
The stamp I used was Holly Wreath Tilda but I cut off the wreath and added a Melissa Frances mini frame instead.
The background brick wall is an Impression Obsession cover a card stamp and I added a die cut window frame. The foliage is a DooHickey die and a Martha Stewart punch.
And because Linda has two cats, her craft room wouldn't be complete with without them!
And look, she's already received a birthday card from a secret admirer!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope to update my blog more regularly!

Honoured to have inspired a reboot of this fantastic blog!! Having received this card in person, I can honestly say its a hundred times more special 'in the flesh'! That wall has depth and texture. The colour of the sky through the window, is exactly the colour I like to see outside mine. I am a bit vertically challenged and NEED to stand on top of things to reach secret places in my craft room, and I ALWAYS have to scoot a cat out of the box I'm working in. Oh yes, there are always open boxes all over the place! I should also mention Tilda's long hair and droopy bottom - perfect likeness! This is a stunning creation! Thanks so much Amanda!
Thank you all for your lovely comments. Lin, I'm so glad you enjoyed your card, I had to smile at you pointing out all the similarities - there were a few there that I hadn't even thought of....vertically challenged, long hair and droopy bottom!
Such an adorable card Amanda. I love the whole scene you have made including the cute little cat. Thank you for entering our challenge at Penny Black and More this month and sharing your gorgeous card with us.
