Birthday Girls

Today we are celebrating two birthdays in our family. One is our youngest daughter, Catherine, who is 20 and the other is Holly, her horse, who is 19. How special is that for them to share a birthday?
Here are the cards I have made for them.

I used Kraft card and papers from the latest Gorjuss collection from Docrafts to create this card for Catherine. The edge punch is from Docrafts too.

The stamp is from the Dear Apple set and was coloured with Copics. The apples are also from the stamp set.

Holly's card is not just a birthday card, it's also a celebration of her regaining her health. She was badly injured in an accident during transit 14 months ago and has only in the past month been able to be ridden again. She is so happy to be back in work and it's all due to the tender, loving care from Catherine. I thought these images from the Crafter's Companion Thelwell CD were perfect.

Here are the birthday girls.
Happy 20th Birthday Catherine!

Happy 19th Birthday Holly!
Have a lovely day everyone, we shall be having fun celebrating.
