Strange Choice of card

Don't ask me why I made this as I don't really know, I sat down in my craft room and started looking for an image to stamp with and this was the first one I came to, the stamp s made by Stampsmith, I used the new Labels Nestabilities to cut the shapes then stamped the image on the top one and sponged the edges with black ink.

I then used Everyday Blessings by Papertrey Ink to stamp the cross and the sentiment on the card.

I then shoved this to the back of my desk as I new it was a strange choice of cards to make. I suppose grief makes us do things without knowing it. It was heading for the bin and then on after thought I finshed the card and thought I should add it to here, after all many have gone through what I am now and I'm sure they have done similar to me.

Fight Over

Dad finally gave up his fight and slipped away peacefully at 9.50pm last night.

All his family spent the day with Dad talking to him and he knew we were there.

I have to be strong now for Mam & I'm holding up OK, just have that awful numb feeling.

Dad - Update

Dad has took a turn for the worse and is now on the high dependancy unit, The doctor has said that his kidneys aren't working , he is not getting enough oxygen and they think he has had a heart attack so this on top of the pneumonia that he has developed makes it highly unlikely that we will get him home now.

So we are playing a very heart breaking waiting game.

I want to thank all that have sent my family well wishes, also those that have phoned. Please don't think I'm ignoring you by not returning messages and calls but life is a little more than manic and calls and messages to family are coming first.

The Good Life - Thomas Kincade

Just a simple stamped card with a couple of leaves and a ribbon to embelish.
