I almost forgot to post this - its my card for the latest Little Claire challenge. The challenge this month is Birthdays and here's the card I made.
I made the background paper using distress inks then stamped the images in black archival and added some clear embossing powder before heat setting. I used the whisper-a-wish-stamp and the silhouette-gardening-stamp-set.
I hope you like my card and thanks so much for all your positive wishes both on here and on facebook.
Big Hugs

ReplyDeleteYou are showing the most immense courage at the moment. I was thinking about you earlier today, wondering what today had brought for Shaun and whether he was making good progress. They do say that sleep is a healer (which I do believe in) so let's hope that while Shaun is in this state his body is beginning the healing process.
This card is full of such warmth, really lovely.
Sending a bundle of positive wishes.

I hope and pray Shaun will wake up soon, hopefully his body is healing during this time, as another of your followers mentioned, sleep can be a great healer. Take care of yourself too Hun.

Thinking of you all at this time, they say sleep is the best healer. Shaun's body is repairing it's self. Look after yourself as you have to stay strong and calm at this time, hard I know, but I know when our son had his second kidney transplant and things weren't good for a good few days, we had to stay calm for him.

ReplyDeleteThis is one gorgeous creation, Rachel I am loving those colours and image are adorable. Take care and Shaun will be home soon.xxThe Journey is the Start
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Rachel love the silhouette images and rich colour-hope Shaun wakes up soon but as everyone says the body heals whilst sleeping-you take care
