Morning everyone, it's mid month time at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations, with themes of Something New and a Mood board, along with the A/G option.
Above made just before my functionality went into decline, my 'new' is the Maple Leaf stamp from Lavinia. No crafting whatsoever since, although currently in London as youngest Son (Team GB athlete) in hospital, foot surgery followed by shock diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes.
This one made some time back taking the colours, bird and flowers from the SS mood board.
My appreciation for your visits when I'm such a poor visitor at the moment,
Two gorgeous cards. Life certainly isn't treating you well at the moment - hope things take an upturn very soon.
ReplyDeletebest wishes for recovery for you and son. Love the lavinia card xx
ReplyDeletevery beautiful cards Brenda....gr karin
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bright foliage and flowers on your fairy card, it looks so pretty. Your second card is just wonderful, love how you incorporated the poem.
ReplyDeleteOh Brenda health issues seem to be such a big worry for your family at the moment I do hope all goes well with your son and that you make an improvement soon you deserve so much better.

Cara Brenda, questo è sicuramente un periodo orribile per te e per la tua famiglia, mi dispiace tantissimo!! Spero che l'operazione al piede di tuo figlio abbia pieno successo e che lui possa tornare alle sue corse, e in tempi brevi!
ReplyDeleteE ti auguro davvero tutto il meglio per la tua salute, prego che le manovre e le terapie ti facciano stare meglio al più presto.
Due cards spettacolari, come sempre mi stupisci per l'uso dei colori e i designs! Adoro la ghirlanda di Lavinia, così luminosa e dolce e quel sentiment è perfetto.
Bellissimo effetto vintage con il timbro AALL&Create e quella pagina con il poema di Lord Tennyson, adoro i bordi strappati e i colori. Deliziosa anche la busta.
((((Ti abbraccio))))
Gorgeous card Brenda, just as well you're so organised and work well ahead. I hope you'll be up to crafting again very soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your son 's diagnosis, it really must have been an awful shock to him...and to you.
