I'M STILL HERE :-(..........................................

Morning all!

Well it's bad news :o(.................. I rang work yesterday and mentioned my back was still playing up a tad and I had tingly pains in my left hip and leg and I cannot go back until I see my GP. They don't want to risk me coming back until I get the all clear and I couldn't get an appointment till tomorrow, doesn't it just irritate you when you have to wait 3 days for an appointment grrrrrrrrr....................... but at least my boss is  looking after me :o)

So I have more play time and I made this wee card from Crafty Sentiments Designs which I am show casing at the mo. This is Mushroom Bear, and isn't he the cutest!!. They have got some lovely valentine sentiments out too at the mo, so if you have time pop over and have a looksy!

This sweetie is going into the following challenges :-
CES # 19 ~ No designer papers
2 Sisters # 22 ~ Flowers


Mushroom Bear ~ Crafty Sentiments

    Aw hun I'm so sorry to hear you are still feeling sore. At least you have an understanding boss, it's not worth the risk too yourself or a patient if you are still in that much pain.
    On the plus side the mojo seems very healthy indeed! Gorgeous card, love the embossing and the sweet image. Hope you have a good day.....make the most of it
