Hi everyone! Hope you're enjoying the hot weather. I'm being a bit of a spoil sport and saying it's TOO hot!! We had to sleep in the lounge last night as it was too hot in our bedroom and in my book, that's too hot!!
Thanks to all of you who left kind messages re my Mum. The good news is that her operation went very well and she has come home today! She had to have a blood transfusion but they managed to do the whole op via keyhole surgery- it's so amazing what they can do now, isn't it? No news yet re the biopsy but the consultant is very pleased with her progress so at least we can say it's the first hurdle over. She's so strong and positive, she's an inspiration.
I've had a bit of an accident prone week- I fell down the stairs, fell over in the hospital car park and then someone drove into the back of me! It's certainly true about bad things happening in threes!
My sis is looking after my Mum for a couple of days before I take over nurse duty (!) so I managed to get a couple of cards in for birthdays coming up. Hope you like them :0)
I've entered this into the following challenges:
Cupcake Craft Challenge- sketch
Simon Says Stamp- make a card for a friend
And then I made this for a friend's little girl called, you guessed it, Isla! I was a bit cheeky with this card as I haven't had a lot of time recently so I recycled this image that I'd coloured and used on a card for my hubbie and cut out the image to use on this card. The papers are by My Mind's Eye and the letters are the Smart Guy Sizzix alphabet.
Crafty stash used: Stamp (Stamping Bella); Watercolour pencils; Copics; Paper (Stampin Up); Assorted cardstock; Sentiment (Pink Petticoat); Nesties; Stickles; Ribbon (Stampin Up); Brads (Stamp Addicts); Gems (K&Co); Flower (Ebay)
