My Crafty Heart DT card

Good morning, hope you are all ok. Well I can't believe that February has almost been and gone. Time goes so quickly, mind you it's probably as you get older eh? lol!

I have a card to show you, that I absolutely loved making. I have had some chipboard mannequins in my stash that I didn't have a clue what to do with. Then, as soon as I saw the brand new Bo Bunny C'est la Vie  paper pad in my box of  MCH DT goodies I knew just what to do with one of them. So I covered one in some of the beautiful papers and added lots of scrummy embellies....

I also used: Bo Bunny Isabella buttons from MCH

Sketch Saturday #247

Good Morning! Hope you are all ok and looking forward to the weekend.

Before I show you my card I just want to say a HUGE thank you for all the lovely comments you left me about Bradley. His operation went well and he will have to go back in 4 months for a scan but the surgeon seemed really happy with it all. So fingers crossed. He was so brave, bless him and didn't make a murmur once, we had to chuckle at him on the way there, he was so excited, Sam had bigged it up that much that he thought it he was having a day out.

As it's Saturday we have another fab sketch to play with over at Sketch Saturday

 

As always we have a wonderful sponsor.

This weeks prize is a fabulous $10.00 too spend in the

 Wings & Willows store!

Classic Crisalis Sneak Peek

Good morning. Hope you are all ok. I'm up and about early this morning as me & hubby are going with our Daughter Sam to hospital. Bradley has to have a little operation. He had Hypospadias repair when he was 18 months old and he had a check up recently and they found that he was struggling to empty his bladder, so they want to widen the tube he wees out of.

I must say although we know it is a little op and straight forward, you still worry. I can't wait till he's back on the ward and awake again.

Before I go and get ready I have a sneak peek to show you from the Crafters Companion Pick of the Week launching on Create & Craft on Friday at 12pm.

The images on this amazing CD are so incredible. They are by the wonderfully talented Christine Haworth.
Make sure you tune in for the Pick of the Day, you will love it.

I'm off to get ready, hope you have a good day.
