Pole Dancing.......

Hi Everyone,

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my previous post,

And a warm welcome to my new followers.

Today is my Grand-daughter's  22nd Birthday (Toni)

She is training to be a dancer at university,

She is also a fully qualified fitness instructor.

In her bid to stay toned, She does lots of exercise, 

Including Pole Dancing.

My son (Jeff) asked if i could make a card for him to give to Toni,

I thought this would be ideal.

What do you think ?

I might add that Toni does not 

wear stiletto's whilst Pole Dancing.

I left the inside blank,

For Jeff to write his own greeting.

Just a little card i printed for Toni,

From Jeff's children (Cousins)

Items used.
