Summery Birthday card

Urgh, Sunday night again ... back to work in the morning.  Don't get me wrong, I love my work, but we've just gone through a merger and I just heard on Friday that me and my colleagues will have to sit an interview for our own jobs.  Not much fun! 
Anyhoo, here's a wee simple Lily of the Valley birthday card.  The DP looks a bit bland here, but its actually a nicer orange IRL.
  • Sketch from CPS #204
  • Colour combo from A Spoon Full of Sugar #137 - orange, yellow and pink (though my pink should have been a darker shade!)

Hi Lynne, I can sympathise, I have had to go through that process before and apply for your own job and its not nice. Luckily I got offered my existing job and another that I went for, I chose the latter for a new start. So fingers crossed it will all be fine. Back to the card LOL - love it, the colours and the butterflies are gorgeous. Hugs, Claire x

You have to interview for your own job, that stinks, but I am sure you are going to rock it!!!!

Love that image, have it and haven't inked it up yet, so thanks for the inspiration...

Hugs

I always think that sounds so unfair Lynne, if you did the job before why on earth do you have to sit an interview for it, what a waste of time and resources...your card is fabulously gorgeous
