30th birthday card

I made a card for an order tonight, for a 30th birthday. I like how it has turned out (shocking I know LOL) but it was a lot of work.........I have discovered I need a new craft knife, not only is the last blade I have blunt it is just a rubbish knife!!!! Also if anyone makes a similar card...........try not to have so many layers of paper to cut through either - my hand is aching :o(

Anyway enough whinging and onto the card...........patterned papers I have no idea where they are from they were loose in the paper box and only one sheet of each so I suspect they were gifted to me lol. Flowers and brads from stash and the shoe charm was in a secret santa gift I received. Let just ho

pe its suitable lol
