WITH AGE

 {YOU ARE VERY WISE}

Hope all my bloggy friends are having a wonderful week.  Its a cool a lovely sunny but cold winters day here in Johannesburg, perfect weather for staying indoors and being crafty.
I am here today with another Birthday Card, but this time for a guy.  As we know, all guys love their wheels, so this little creation should appeal to any guy.

  The brads and design papers are from my stash. The folded pinwheels have been created with scallop square punches.  The image is a pre-coloured image sourced from the web.
The sentiment is from CREATE WITH TLC and I used dry chalks on it.


Another crochet project - another scarf for hubby using a weave pattern this time.
