A Card - Shi Tzu - Just Inklined

Firstly I wanted to thank you all for the support you have shown me and the wonderful messages and comments from you all, it is lovely to turn on the computer and find a mass of kindness from lovely people.

I'm not out of the woods but my back is getting stronger but I had to make a card as I was going insane ha ha.

I decided on the Shi Tzu image from Just Inklined as my brothers birthday is coming up and as he has one of these cuties I thought it would make the perfect card for him.

The Shi Tzu image is by Just Inklined and only needs minimal colour adding, I used Promarkers Cinnamon and Tan. Teamed the image with paw print paper and matching ribbon and buttons.

Back Update

Well I think it's a little better, either that or I'm getting accustomed to the pain.

I paid the doctors a visit today and they want me to have a steroid injection in my back as they believe it is a flare up of the psoriatic arthritis.

The other thing that came to light is that I have seemingly missed 15 years worth of HRT after having a full hysterectomy so I have to have a bone density scan and start some HRT so I have to go back again next week after they have dug out all of my notes.

So, I have to keep topped up on my Tramadol, Anti inflammatory and paracetamol oh yes and an anti acid (new one) because of the anti inflammatory tablet.

Good stuff eh!

Unhappy Santa - Sassy Cheryls

When the very talented Cheryl Alger (artist of Sassy Cheryls) asked me to do a little project for her I jumped at the chance, I simply love her work, if you havent yet found her get on over there as you are missing out click here to be taken to her store.

I used the Unhappy Santa with gift and coloured it with Copic Markers, I used a deep Purple card and created the scene with white ink and sponging over torn paper then punched out a circle from scrap paper and sponged through the hole to make the moon, I dabbed the Ink Essentials white pen randomly across the sponged scene for snow and added a star with the came pen.

I added lots of crushed glass glitter for the snow topped roof and added the image seperatly with foam pads to make it a 3d effect.
