not just for boys...


Good morning everyone are you all having a fab week?...Phil was marshaling again at the North West 200 yesterday but not just in the morning but afternoon and evening too in fact he wasn't home until 9pm...I don't know how he does it, it rained most of the day, but he came home with a very pink face from sunburn????...ok where did he get the sun from he was only a few miles up the road from our house...I have a hospital appointment very early this morning for some tests and a scan uuurrrggghhhh I hate hospitals don't you...a few years ago I was very very ill and spent a long time in intensive care and since then hospitals make my palms sweat, my blood pressure shoots up and I feel so sick while I'm in there...I don't know if its the smells or just the memory but whatever it is I have a dread and fear of them so much...so wish me luck I will need it lol...right now onto my card for today...it just goes to show that blue isn't just for boys doesn't it...this fabulous little sweetie is one of the new Saturated Canary stamps...shes called Tilly and she stamps perfectly so crisp and just as good as a digi which surprised me a bit as you know how much I love my digis don't you, I coloured her with my usual distress inks...I used more of the lush Bazzill Basics 6x6" Multipack - Freedom papers that I used for Mondays card and finished with a fabulous bow made from some Organza Ribbon - Baby Blue (25mm Wide), gorgeous blue roses from the 15mm Flat Back Rose Cabochons - Mixed Bag and the fabulous sentiment is a stamp from the Whimsy Mini Background stamp set...this is a great set, I will use these loads...everything I used on my card today is from Bunny Zoe's Crafts...the fab sketch is from the Sketch N Stash Challenge and I'm also entering it for the Natalie and Amy Challenge and the By The Cute and Girly Challenge too...right I'm off to get some war paint on and have a cuppa before I get my taxi to the hospital...my Dad and Phil wanted to take me but I think I'm better off by myself don't you lol...whatever your up to today have a brilliant one and I hope there isn't anything stressful happening in it
