CD Sunday Plus - Challenge #146 - hosted by Meg

There are three celebratory birthdays in my family this month and I have chosen the celebration of my granddaughter's 21st Birthday to share with you.

I find it hard to believe that Ellie (Eleanor) will be 21 in a few days.  Here is the card that I have made for her.

I used an image of Tatty Ted from the Docraft Designer CD. I printed it out twice and then punched out the flowers with my Pinflair Punch and stuck them on the image for the 3d effect. 

'Ellie'  and the borders were printed using my ACDSee graphics programme.

The image of the champagne bucket etc was a purchase from Etsy.

Using the image of the card front I made 6 coasters for her to use on the day and then keep as a memento. 

The scan isn't perfect but here it is.

I am looking forward to seeing her on her special day.

Happy Christmas to all my followers and fellow teamies

I hope you all have a fabulous Christmas and a Prosperous and Healthy New Year.
I am getting ready to visit my sister for the holiday and on the way to her visit my daughter and SIL who I don't see often enough.
Three great friends who come to me every month  for a day of crafting, eating, chatting and generally putting the world to rights were here yesterday.  We try a do a different craft each month and this time  we were making parchment inserts for coasters using Groovi plates as a source  for the images.  It was a mad idea I had had but  they loved it and they went home with some super coasters which they were going to give out as presents.
Because I was hostessing I had time for chatting and a glass or two but not much crafting time but I did make this one:

Not perfect as it was rather hurried but fun nevertheless.  We have fixed our date next month and more of the same has been requested.  With the great number of Groovi plates I seem to have aquired there will be lots of images from which to choose.
So have a good holiday and thank you for your support and kind comments over the year.
I will be back in time to post the next challenge by CD Sunday.
