Anita's Belated Surprise Birthday Party

Today we are holding a belated Birthday Surprise Party for the very talented Anita who was a little bit sneaky and let her Birthday pass us by with out a little wink! But we have our spies! Darnell and Bev or Mrs Bonds of blogland, sent a super secretive document to us and alerted us to the fact that Anita was in need of a celebration. So a few of us have got together to have a crafty blog hop in honour of the Anita.

I have for a long time followed Anita's blog because she is a super creative but also because her posts are always amusing and every time I read her post's I smile. This, I feel, is her gift to me. What better gift is there than the gift of happiness?

So today I have channeled my inner Anita and made a card that I hope makes her and you smile. I also think Anita is unique so this is for her:


I have used the sketch at Fusion plus the colours from the photo. 
The black glasses have been fussy cut and paper pieced with silver mirri card, popped up on foam pads to be unique!

All Anita's cards are being linked up on Darnell's blog. Check them out and a very Happy Belated Birthday Anita!
