As you can see from my title I'm not a happy bunny :o(. Been to the Doc's about my back and I have trapped a nerve! I have been signed off for two weeks with a bucket load of anti-inflammatory drugs and pain killers and I'm feeling very sorry for myself boohoo. If the nerve doesn't settle down I will have to see a specialist and have a MRI scan and I just hate being off work!, Yep I'm sad but I love my job and I worry far too much about it (silly girl lol!)
So to cheer myself up I have made this little card and its a super cute image from Lili of the Valley. I have used some fab papers from Wild Rose Studio "Polka Dots" paper pad, some ribbon and a wee button, another easy peasy card lol!
This little gem is going into the following Challenges :-
Friday Sketchers # 135 ~ Fab Sketch
Alphabet ~ I for Infants
One Stop Craft # 112 ~ New Beginnings
Secret Crafter # 115 ~ Buttons and Bows
Baby Boy ~ Lili of the Valley
