do you need an Angel?...


Good morning everyone I hope your all well and thank you so much for your get well wishes....gggrrroooaaaannnn I'm still feeling like rubbish, its not like me to be floored by a stupid cold but this one has knocked me for six, poor Phil came in from work last night and made dinner bless him, I couldn't stand up long enough to cook, its a good thing hes an excellent cook and just gets on with things isn't it...but I'm fed up with it now so I have decided to get up off my butt today and try and fight it off, you go girl lol...a little trip to the greengrocers is needed as I have run out of lemons and oranges...although they don't seem to be working, I know what I need, some of my cure all chicken soup but I don't have the energy to make any, any volunteers...I need some crafters to come here, take over, give the house a tidy, craft with me and make me some honey and lemon and chicken soup...in return unlimited craft supplies, Phil's lush cake making and bed and board...please send all applications to lol......omg I think I'm rambling now so before I go off on one totally I better tell you about my card for today...this stunner of a stamp is from Sugar Nellie and is by the amazing Diane Duba...shes called Peace Angel and isn't she so delicate and gentle looking...I coloured very softly with distress inks and used some more of the amazing DCWV papers I bought the other week from my local craft store, the papers in my candy are from this range too, stunning isn't it, the photo really doesn't do it justice as not only is it sparkly but its glossed and embossed...now how could I resist cutting out all those stunning flowers and leaves and using them for decoration...you know me I cant resist a lot of cutting out, I finished with a wing and heart charm and a pearl...I'm entering this for the One Stitch at a time challenge, Addicted-to-stamps challenge and the No Matter which challenge too...I really do have to go out today as my lovely Dad has a hospital appointment and as his hearing is really bad (still no joy with getting him to get a hearing aid but I'm still working on it) he needs someone with him to hear the Doctors and tell him later what was said...so its war paint on and believe me I will need a lot today lol...whatever your up to today watch out for those nasty germs floating round
