Eeeek!!! It's my friend's birthday on Friday, so I'm cutting it very fine for finishing his card (thankfully I've had his present wrapped for ages, so I know that will arrive on time!)

Sailing boat birthday card
On Tuesday it will be my Fairy Godmother's husband's birthday (which sort of makes him my Fairy Godfather...). They used to live on their yacht together sailing around the world, so I know he loves boats.
