Sweet Elins, Frog on Flower

Morning friends.

Hope you have all had a wonderful weekend. Today there is a new challenge over at Songbird. The challenge has been sponsored by Bearly Mine and the theme is "Could it be Magic".  We have some lovely DT members cards to show you and it would be lovely if you could join in and add a bit of Magic to your cards. 

I have used Nellie Snellen's - Sweet Eline's, Frog on Flower.

The image has been coloured in with Flexi Markers and Pro Markers.

I have loved making this card. I have wanted for so long some Pion Papers and I finally purchased some at a craft fair recently. I love, love, love them  and am going to buy a bucket full at the NEC. 

The bow die is from Memory Box

The Sentiment is computer generated and mounted onto a Whimsy Ticket Stamp.

The ribbon, lace and gem on the bow are from my own stash.

Tilda with Wrapped Heart

Hi Blogger Friends.

Thank you so much for the get well messages for my dad. He has been suffering from Pancreatitus and has been extremely poorly. He is still in the high observation ward and has a long way to go but hopefully he is out of danger. I have never seen him look so frightened.  I have not been able to face going to work and have found it difficult to eat and sleep, I needed to be at home so that I could get across to the hospital as soon as possible if needed. Luckily I live across the road from the hospital.

  We have had some more sad news this week. Our daughter Kayleigh has unfortunately lost her baby. She was 12 weeks but the baby had stopped growing at 8 weeks. Russ set off this morning at 6am so that he could be with her as she had to go through the necessary procedure to make sure the baby had come away and it is now 9pm and he is still at the hospital with her. Bless her.  So all in all it has been one hell of a shitty week. 

I have tried to keep up with my comment commitments for my DT blogs but have not felt in the mood for any crafting. This is a card I made earlier for a friends daughter. 

The card blank is from Craftwork Cards and the papers are from Nitwit Collections. The image has been coloured with Copic Markers. 

The butterfly  die on the side of the card is called Butterflight by Tim Holtz. Love this die.

The ribbon is Silk Crush from The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop. The feather is from my own stash as is the button on the ribbon. The sentiment is computer generated. 

I am now going to do some commenting on your wonderful blogs whilst I wait for Russ to get home. I think he will need a big hug.

Morning Blogger Friends.

There is a new challenge today over at Songbirds. The theme  "Build me up Buttercup", which I am sure you have guessed, means your submissions must be predominantly yellow. The Sponsor is Pink Cat Studio.  I have used the lovely "Lily Bee". 

The papers are from Nitwit Collections. I have coloured her with Pro Markets and Flexi Markers.

Sorry about the shadows - not one of my better photo's.
The bow is from a local craft shop.

The metal corner embellishment and the flowers are from WOC. I have glittered her wings using Diamond Sparkles.

Thank you for the get well comments for Dad. He is a lot better than yesterday but still not well. I am stopping with mum for a couple of nights and don't want to seem rude so time for commenting will be limited but I will try my best. I can perhaps sneak in a couple of hours when she goes to bed as she is not a night owl like myself.
