Elegant birthday lady

The image I've used for this birthday card was actually in a Christmas kit (I'm going to make a Christmas card with another of these images soon). I think it would be suitable for a winter birthday.

Anyway, I've made this for Party time Tuesdays challenge 12: 'pink, brown and white'. The base card is pearlised pink and I've cut the corners with Fiskars celestial corner edges scissors.

Gatefold Christmas card

Three or four years ago I bought a Brenda Pinnick Christmas kit and used most of it, but recently found that I'd got some pieces that I hadn't used. So here's a gatefold card with BP papers, some sticky ribbon and a few circle images that came in a Christmas kit from QVC last year.
