Pretty in Pink

I needed to make a Thank you card for a friend who has been a star at taking MIL to hospital for her cataracts operation and making sure she is OK. So I thought I'll use the sketch over at Penny Black Saturday challenge and this cute Hedgie that I brought second hand. Since I used the daisy border punch the other day I wondered what the doily punch would look like and its so cute. The papers are scraps but I think they could be Paper Adventures, I had them for a very long time. The flowers have fabric roses in their centres and the Leone-em punch to finish, so happy to have a new one.
Yesterday I was at Scrapbuddies Crop hoping to get a lot done but in the end did very little although FairyKaren was showing how to make the paper roses that have been doing the rounds lately. It was much easier making then step by step in real life then trying to work it out with photos and videos.
