I had a good day at the hospital yesterday - Shaun was sitting in the chair again and everything seems to be going in the right direction - we have some digestive issues at the moment which I hope will be resolved soon. He's doing very well though apart from that - hopefully more of that today! Shaun's brother came over from Germany yesterday too and picked his sister up enroute - we have them for the next few days visits which will be great for Shaun!
Today sees the new challenge starting over at Imagination Crafts - the theme as ever is Anything goes - and you can enter here. Here's my make for your inspiration:
I just adore this stencil - its sooooo pretty and I loved using it to make a scene, plus the frame around it. The imagination Crafts products I used are:
Here's a close up - I teamed it all up with distress inks and other masks in my collection!
I hope you have a wonderful New Year and if you haven't already entered my candy there's a few more days to enter ..... I think you'll like the surprise if you win!
Big hugs to you and thanks for joining me today!
