I got some absolutely brilliant cards for my birthday, these are three of my favourites I received. This first one was a complete surprise from a very lovely person indeed! The detail is incredible.
Bit of a rubbish photograph of the inside but it really is stunning. I was in awe, looking through all the various illustrations, it was a sort of 'Where's Wally' experience.
This one was from t'mother! I've never had a card like this before, I found it interesting looking back at how the prices had changed of food and various other mumbo jumbo from 1991.
The year of Noel's House Party... memories!
Last but not least is...
This one is from my wonderful friend Gemma! She knows me so well. Ricky Gervais making dodgy faces = brilliant.
I remember having a real good laugh at this when I opened it. We always make home made comedy sort of cards, I sent her an Alan Partridge one for her birthday... BACK OF THE NET!
Hope you enjoyed this sort of different post! :)
