Truly Scrumpteous challenge



Wow its Wednesday already, havn't had much time for crafting this week as its half term and I had my gorgeous Grandson Brodie to stay, he is 5 weeks old now and he absolutely beams when he smiles, hes so yummy.

Anyway on to the card I have made,its for the Truly Scrumpteous challenge blog which is a sketch and a recipe of 3 flowers, 3 brads and 3 pearls. I made it for my younger sister who is currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer and I just thought I would make a card to let her know I'm there for her, its so hard to know what to say sometimes. I had to shave her hair off yesterday as it was coming out in handfuls, that was one of the hardest things I have done to be honest, we both cried together, she is so brave bless her heart.

Ingredients;
Stamped image; Mo Mannings 'sisters'.
Colouring medium; prisma and promarkers, highlighted with inksentials gel pen
Papers; DCVW and papermania cardstock
Sentimetn, computer generated
Embellishments; Flowers, brads and pearls from stash

Thanks for looking today, see you soon x x

Just a card



Hi hope everyone has had a good week, I have, it was my daughters 18th on Wednesday and we all went out for a meal, there was 20 of us altogether and it was a really nice evening. Also I went round my son's and had lots of cuddles with Brodie who is now nearly 5 weeks old. They are letting me have him on my own for the afternoon on Wednesday, I can't wait, I love him so much....;-)

Anyway here is a card I made for the new Totally gorguss challenge and when I went to enter it the first week had finished...lolo..;-), but I though I would show you anyway.
The challenge was 'Pink'.
Will try to get the next weeks challenge entered on time.

Thanks for looking.
