Darling Marci

Hi all,

Hope you are all enjoying this fantastic weather we have been having and are not having as stressful week as I am. Abbie's hospital app didn't go as well as we had hoped, her lung function has come right back down again and her weight had dropped, so at the moment we are just awaiting all the test results (x-rays, bloods, cough plates, exercise tolerance) to come back before her consultant makes a decision on what we do next. Also poor Oli has been suffering quite badly this week after getting sunburnt on Sunday afternoon, his back has all blistered up and he has been in a lot of pain, hopefully we seem have gone past the worst of it now and it seems to be drying up.

On top of all that, missy had a very upset tummy on Tue night and we found out that she had only gone and eaten a seed pod from a plant in the garden. Which when we looked up online was classed as toxic and can cause gastroenteritis and breathing difficulties - thankfully apart from an upset tummy for a few hours she was fine lol!!!

Anyway better show you the card I popped on her to post. Trying to make a few cards that will fit in an envelope rather than keep buying/making boxes so not too many embellies and I used flat flowers rather than the roses etc.


I used the gorgeous La La Land Marci image and teamed her with some pretty LOTV papers, the background is my new Stampin Up embossing folder (love this, got the hexagon one too but that's not come out the packet yet!!) and just added a bit of ribbon, flat flowers and pearls to finish.

I love the clean fresh feel to this card and think the pale blue teamed with the kraft looks fab. Am also quite pleased with my colouring on this one too.

Anyway thanks for popping by my blog today, have a fabulous weekend whatever your doing
