Old Brick Wall Background Sheet PortraitCompleted by Allen Bowen

I was asked to make a 40th birthday card for a husband & wife who share a birthday. As the husband is a builder I used a sheet by Lee Jacobs plus this brick background to do the male side of the card.

I used part of a Sandie Burchell insert for the central greeting, a piece of card stock from my stash with a lacy edge was added to the opposite side then shoes from a sheet by Julie Hutchings were added using foam pads.

As a final touch I used a black labrador from a sheet also by Liz Harrison. No less than 4 designers went into this card.
