A special birthday

Today is my friend G's birthday.......she's a big Michael Jackson fan......has all his albums....and DVDs......and some books.......saw him at Wembley Stadium....even hosted a Michael Jackson themed party!!
So when I saw this digi stamp at Whiff of Joy........I just knew it was perfect for her.......and I love the MME 'Lost and Found' papers.
She also loves glitter and bling.......so his jacket is heat embossed with 'black sparkle' [which spread slightly!!]........Fab'n'Funky want to see 'embossing'.........and there's lots of Stickles on the stars and round the image........and Glossy Accents on his hat and glove.
It's G's first birthday since D passed........so we're spending the day together in our 'old town'.......visiting shops.......wandering round this week's 'Coastal Currents' open studios.......lunching at the cafe on the beach........and this evening out for a 'girly' meal date with some friends.

I like how you've added some sparkle & glitter to this card and how you've personalized it for something your friend likes.

Happy Wednesday

Hi Jacky...
Where is the extra large size...I don't have that button! I only have small medium or large to choose from..?
Fab card!

Hi Jacky...
When I upload a photo and click on 'done'...it loads on to my blog as about 6 lines of writing...not as a photo that I could click on?

Hi Jacky...Just checked my settings and I am on the 'Updated Editor'. But I do not have a photo come up in my post until I click on 'publish post'. I don't seem to have any of the features that are on the image resizing etc and I tried clicking on the thumbnail picture before clicking 'done'!
I've always had rows of writing...so I can't click and drag that!mmm sounds like my blog is completely different to all of yours...Thats why I cahnged it to a different template...but it hasn't made any difference...;
