Happy 70th birthday

Hello there,

It's the first of the month again, so it's time for a new Pearly Sparkles challenge, over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog. Our theme this month is "Black and White plus 1 other colour". I've a friend celebrating a big birthday so wanted to make a special card for her. As she's a Liverpool supporter I decided to add red to the mix, as that's the colour of their strip. I hope you like the card I've made, I've done a couple of variations of this in different colours, including easel cards.

I also hope you'll join us over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog this month and share your makes with us.
