My shining star

My shining star

Wednesday 10 September 2014

a corner turned and anything goes with the option of a sketch at Creative Inspirations.

Morning Lovelies - I'm feeling much more positive today - Shaun just seemed so much better yesterday - they fixed his rib cage back together yesterday and hopefully that means things are all going to be good now in his chest. They've also started to wean him off the gas part of the bi vad machine thats pumping the blood around - and he's responding well. There's still a long and twisted road ahead of us but I still feel very positive. Thankyou so much for your comments and best wishes - you are all very kind and I will never forget the kindness I have felt over the last few days.

Onto todays post - its a new challenge over at Creative inspirations - I'm taking a break from the challenge blog after this week - I need to focus on Shaun and the girls but I will be back with them as soon as possible. Anyway I used the sketch from the blog this week and an image from Robyn's Fetish.



I made the background using distress inks and the panel I embossed with an embossalicious folder then swiped a staz on over the top. The image was coloured with spectrum noir pencils.

I hope you enjoy your day and thanks again so much for your support.

Big Hugs

Rachel xx

  19. Dear Rachel
    I only read of your news as I caught up with the lovely Rita. Sorry to be so late in sending my wishes to you and your DH but I have been absent from much of on-line activity, certainly blog visits for a week, or so.
    Keeping you and your family in my thoughts but it has been a relief to read that the news is more positive and Shaun is responding well.
    This is such a lovely card.
    Take good care Rachel.
    Wishes
    Lynne
