Craft a scene week 2

Hello lovelies! How are you? I'm good and more importantly so is Shaun - no decision was made yet about the transplant situation - the meeting is now this Tuesday so I'll put anything I know in my next blog post. This said he is getting stronger by the day and his kidneys even did a bit of work today - thats fingers crossed they'll kick in properly soon.

today I have a reminder for you of the current challenge over at Craft a scene - this month its by the silvery moon - create a scene using this as your theme. Here's my make:


Sorry the photo is not the best - the diecut is by Tim Holtz - I attempted to get some crackle on it - it does look better in reality - honest - the background is done using distress inks and the tree stamp is from Clarity.

Big Hugs to you!

Rachel xx

    Hi Rachel, oh it is so good to hear that Shaun is progressing well, he has certainly been a fighter and I'm sure the kidney function will kick in soon, it will just take time as he was so ill.

    Now your card is just gorgeous, love the scene and the butterfly is glorious, take care, hugs Kate x
