My Minds Eye meets Hero Arts meets Paper Piercing! - 'Funky Sun Shot' - I like the banner shadow! |
Same Card - Different Light Source |

Anyway, the card above, is for the hostess of the party. She is the girlfriend of the birthday boy, and she generously offered her home when four of us started planning this adventure.

I thought a card was the least I could do to thank her for putting up with all of us! And besides, I want to be to be welcomed back again!
