HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY


Happy 60th Birthday

I was asked to make a card, for a 60th birthday celebration.  Her name was Joy and I was meant to know her.  I really had to think about this name and whom was ordering the card and I couldn't think for the life of me who Joy was.  Well I got to meet Joy at long last,  Joy was the makeup artist that did my make for me 25 years and one month ago today.  It's a very small world isn't it? 


This is a Dutch Barn fold card.

As this is a very special milestone I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
