Birthdays in Ibiza

As some of you already know, I have a dear friend who lives in Ibiza - great for some eh? Anyway, Rachel and I "met" through the Extra Special Parents charity as her son has Diabetes and last year we met for real when we went on holiday to Ibiza. Rachel's birthday was at the end of June, her youngest daughter Emily turned 13 last week and her youngest, Aiden is 8 in a fortnight. So I thought I'd share a couple of the cards I made for them. I have also sent her a wee care parcel of chocolate in the bag that I made for the Cocoa and Cornflower challenge at PfP. I haven't made Aiden's card yet, but I'll share it when I have.
