Commissioned Card for a Man's Aunt





My husband came home with an order for a card for me to make for Tuesday - yikes.  The customer had written down:  budgies, British Airways planes and crazy painted nails and as much detail as possible.  I've spent countless hours on it today on-and-off only to do the final sticking together and my husband says have you got the planes and nails on it - I was led to believe it was one of them and not all three but I've had a go.  The customer has cards at his place of work and showed my husband the things he likes.  Hopefully I've managed to finish it so the customer is happy - I'll find out on Tuesday.  I'm not sure the inside of the front cover of the card on the front of the card - an idea I pinched from the every popular and talented Michelle Marsden - it might change before Tuesday or it might not!!!!  I have used My Craft Studio to make the majority of this card.

I found this card very hard as I don't like birds - I whince in a square in town nicknamed "pigeon Square" when the pigeons start flying around!!!

I wish someone had made me a card like that when I was breeding birds (budgies included). A very specialised card and you've done it so well.
