A bit of Wisdom

I thought I would give you and update of how things are going.

I have only had 2 lots of pain killers today, so things are starting to heel very nicely thank goodness. Trust me to have this done when my bloods where low in the cells that fight infections.

Natalie was thinking I was coming out in sympathy with her, mind you it’s just as well that I didn’t need her to nurse me the same way I nursed her because I haven’t seen hide nor hair of her…. oh to be footloose and fancy free at the young age of 20.

I’m setting myself up to go back to work tomorrow and hoping that the freezing cold office wont set it away again, mind you I have got a heater tucked under my desk so all should be fine and dandy.

D’arcy’s Diaries

Theres a new kid on the block! ok then a new digi company with some gorgeous girls just awaiting some colour.

This one that I used is D’Arcy’s Diaries No6 Under my Umberella you can check out the full range at D’Arcy’s Diaries

I made mine into an inspirational card for when someone needs a little pick me up to know you care.

Backing papers are by Raspberry Road designs called Fight like a girl. i even got out my sewing machine for this one.

Apple of my Eye

With Valentine just around the corner I started to think of card without the slushy feel to them but something that would give a smile and still the meaning of the day is there, this one just ticks all of the boxes for me.

Apple of my eye by Karen's Doodles

Made on a Kraft base card and teamed with gorgeous ribbon and bakers twine from Ribbon Carousel all of the other elements and papers  are from Raspberry Road designs I also used the Viva Decor Crackle paint on opposite corners and buffed it with precious metal gold from Creativity Direct.The image was cut out using the circle Nestabilities both plain and scalloped.

My lovely man is taking me out for a little fresh air today, still in pain but hopefully the worst is over.

Bride and Groom

Morning friends, it’s Friday and those that get the weekend off work will be counting their blessings today.

My card today is Bride and Groom Dancing by Mo’s Digital Pencil 

I’m still having mega problems with my mouth, and the medication is knocking me for six, so much so that I daren’t drive so my lovely man is going to take me to hospital this morning as I have to get my bloods re checked, I think the meds along with a low blood count is maybe why I can’t seem to walk in a straight line and feel so sickly.

I still have a gaping hole in the bottom gum but the top is closing so hopefully the bottom will follow soon.

Promarker Limited Edition

Spring will soon be here and to celebrate this Letraset have produced a Promarker Limited Edition to the family. Six new fresh colours, how exciting. They are all in the pastel family and would be a fabulous edition to your collection.

I thought I should give them a whirl with a new addition card.

I used three of the new colours on my card, Fresh Meadow, Daffodil Bloom and Budding Rose. I love these colours and they lay down with a chalky look to them but without the mess.

Don’t wait to long to get yours as they could be gone.

Floral Fancies–Freebie

I was asked the other day for more colours of a freebie i made in 2009 so I thought it would be nice to share with you all, 5 sheets in beautiful shades. if you want them smaller for an embellishment rather than a feature, you could always print them at half size. I would recommend a soft gloss paper like a satin or decoupage paper for the best results.

Wisdom Update

I couldn't take the pain any longer so I took myself back to the dentist this afternoon, it appears I have a bad case of dry socket infection in where my bottom wisdom tooth would have been. So a big box of antibiotics and soluble Co Codamol, corsodyl mouth wash and I topped it up with corsodyl toothpaste too.  if you don’t here of me in the next two days it could be that I have lock jaw eeeek!

Ok tablets taken mouth swilled, now time for a little nap methinks.

Spring with Adele–Mo Manning

Well I keep taking the pain killers but they take longer to kick in and a sure know when I’m ready for more, a sore mouth leaves you pretty miserable I can tell you, I think part of the problem is my tongue it just can’t leave it alone and I look pretty silly going through the day holding it to stop it wandering.

I decided that a spring card might be just the ticket to cheer me up.

Adele from Mo’s Digital Pencil 

I coloured her with FlexMarkers by Letraset and used the Nestabilities Oval dies to cut her out then teamed her with Nitwit Collection papers

I just love the size of her Easter Bonnet.
