Tattered Lace May Challenge

Mays challenge is here and this month the theme is Romance and Roses and I did cheat a little, I was so busy with Create and Craft that it just crept up on me, so the romance is all with tattered lace and the roses ahem is one prima rose at the top.

I made a very clean and simple card using Church (D332) and the Ornate Cross (D246)

I embossed the church die onto the aqua card and then cut around it and then cut out the church in white and over laid it onto the embossed aqua card. It makes a lovely effect.

Now please join in the challenge, it is fun and you get a chance of winning a prize too.

Fracture Clinic

I had Chris back at hospital this morning, he did manage to get a couple of hours sleep thankfully. The shock of yesterday is taking its toll, I think in my younger days I would have brushed things like this off but these days it has me rattled for a few days.

Apparently Chris has given himself a good battering and managed to severely damage muscle and ligaments in his shoulder so that along with his ribs should keep him out of mischief, the doctor advised it would take a few months for his shoulder to mend.

So for now we will keep his pain meds topped up to try to keep him confortable.

Oh My–Hospital

What a morning, I was awoke with a whisper of a voice trying to get me to wake up, Chris had been out on his bike early doors and had an accident, he was struggling to breath and shaking uncontrollably, Chris doesn't do medicine in any form and wont go to the doctors if he is ill so I instantly knew he was in trouble as he asked to go to hospital.

I’ve just got home and the poor love has been through the mill, he has a problem with his shoulder as there is a large gap between the shoulder ball and the socket so he is sporting a sling and we need to go back to the fracture clinic tomorrow morning. It is likely he has cracked ribs because of the breathing issues and the tenderness but the lung capacity seams fine, he is very grazed and drugged with painkillers. I so relieved he got away with no major injuries.

So I wont be on Create and Craft today or tomorrow as they have kindly got the shows covered for me. However I will be back Thursday with a One Day Wonder.

Whoop Whoop, Another Busy Week Ahead

Firstly a couple of cards which I forgot to post from Thursdays Basal Premium Card shows at Create and Craft. I also have some scrapbook layouts to show and as soon as I get a minute to photograph them I will.
