Good Bye John

Good Morning All
By the time you read this John Next Door will be well on his way, driving through Spain towards France, on his way to UK.  I will miss him so much but he has done it for good reasons and I,m sure doors will open for him in the crafting world.

This is the card I made for him.



The front is acetate and I stamped in the corner and heat embossed with gold.  Inside I put 'Bitty Blossoms' flowers made from book pages.
Heat embossed the sentiment and added Zva Creative swirl bling which I was lucky to win last month on their blog hop.






I,m not sure where the butterflies are from, they were with some blog candy.

I added one of my bead pins to the ribbon and gems to the butterflies.

This pic is without the acetate, as it always reflects when photographing.

Good Bye John, see you in December.

    Awe, beautiful card for John, I am sure it's on it's way to the UK with your good wishes. It's always sad to have to say good bye to a good friend, I left a lot in the UK when I moved here to Ireland, but I had very little choice but to come here.

    Ita, how are you today? Hope you are on the mend.

    Hi Wendy, this is a fabulous card and I bet John loved it as well as appreciated it.

    Never understood the reason why he decided to move back to the UK when, if I am correct, his Mom lives in Spain? I wish him well though whatever the reason I bet you will miss him greatly.

    Love & Hugs
