Hello there bloggers ... I have been a bit absent lately ... in fact our original plans of cycling around half of Australia after easter until the end of the year had to be tabled until next year! Unfortunately my father had a heart attack and was hospitalised for a couple of weeks and then had a heart bypass so I decided to pop over here to NZ to look after him and mum in his recovery ... he is doing well and to look at him you would never guess that he has had heart surgery!
So now I am in the process of doing some thank you cards for the 2 hospitals he was in, the Intensive Care Unit and to a particular senior nurse that took time out to explain to my family the heart bypass process and the rehabilitation involved ... so here is the first ...
I am submitting it for the sketch from Card Patterns #162 (I rotated it on its side), Paper Sundaes 'let's get cute' and the Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge which is from the following picture ...
materials - white cardstock, AC cranberry cardstock; Basic Grey 'hello luscious' papers; Paper Smooches 'fruitastic' stamps, MFT alphabet set; Staz On jet black, Versa Color scarlet; Spellbinders standard circles large; 1/8" eyelet; 7mm split ring; Ranger ruby red liquid pearls; Ranger glossy accents; 16mm satin trim
Thanks for looking.
