Boo

Hello lovelies! Thanks for all of your comments and well wishes - Shaun has been making good progress this week with improvements in liver function - however last night his blood oxygen levels plummeted until his oxygen levels on the ventilator were significantly increased. He has been fine in himself throughout this episode but the team aren't very happy with this development and took him off for CT scans today - I do not know yet what they found - I'm hoping to meet them tomorrow to get an update - I get so scared at these points - fingers crossed its not too much of a setback.

Its the first of the month today and I have a GDT post to share with you for A Little Bit Crafty. The theme this month is Boo. I made a very quick card using a doobadoo stencil, distress ink (seedless preserves) and TH sizzix dies.



Hope you like this - its very simple but I think quite effective.

Big Hugs to you!

Rachel x
