Get Well Wishes

Just a quickie post today as im not really in the mood for talking/typing but I have been wanting to post this card for the past wee while and as im trying to keep my mind occuppied from things going on right now in 'real-life', nows as best time as ever...

A little while ago my nan had a terrible fall which left her pretty messed up and requiring hospital treatment, stitches and all sorts of scans and further treatment since, but she's been really strong throughout and as I live many miles away getting to see her in person is a little difficult so I wanted to let her know that although we cant be there in person we are still always thinking about her, so I made her a card...

I also made her a phone charm with a cross and angel wings and sent that in with her card, but trying to get a decent photograph of that proved beyond my capabilty, darned blasted thing but never mind.
Anyways my nan loved it, she even cried when she received it bless her. And then when she called to say it had arrived and that she was very grateful for the thoughts and prayers she asked 'where I had bought it from', maybe the fact that i had stamped my logo onto the back confused her a little, either that or the bang to the head sent her off a bit haha...  Obviously I took it as a wonderful compliment and was touched by how much she loved it, and even though I would definitely prefer to have been there in person with her she knew how much we were thinking of her and hoping for a speedy recovery.
My family mean so much to me and although I speak to them regularly I dont half miss them. So if any of them happen to stop by here and read this I just want to tell you all that I love you all millions and you're never more than a thought away.



I know I said it would not be a long post but whilst i'm here i'd just like to mention what an awesome candy Donna over at Bearly Mine Craft is giving away at the moment, theres so much stuff there that it will certainly make somebody a very happy crafter

I really, really, really am hoping it'll be me, I have my legs and toes crossed and if it didnt make it so hard to type i'd have my fingers and eyes crossed too. And then to top that amazing giveaway off she's also got a brand new Epsom printer to giveaway to a lucky crafter in the UK

 

OOOOOOoooooo now thats some amazing blog candy and if you're quick you can get a chance to put your name in the hat too, as it ends on the 30th November.

Right i'm definitely shifting my backside now as i've just had a phone call with some news I really wanted not to have to hear and its left me with 4 rather disappointed kiddie winkles and they need their mummy so I wish you all a wonderful evening and i'll see you soon.

Love and hugs

A Rather 'Sassy' Birthday Wish...

Before I get to my card for this evening I would like to wish my amazing hubby a very Happy Birthday, Love you with all my heart my Sexii Skittle.

Anyways its in honour of Roberts birthday that im posting this card...

 

 

 

Earlier this week I posted that I was stuck for ideas as to what design I wanted to make for my husbands birthday card, stuck was an understatement to be honest... well that was until I went wandering around blogdom and almost fell off my chair when I got to Sassy Studio Designs, one of my favourite places for digital images. They were having a blog hop to celebrate 800 members on PCP with a freebie image that sorta slapped me right in the face and I knew immediately it was the one I would use, so I printed it off and sat colouring, still lost for what else I would do (typical of me to leave things to the last minute!) days passed and still nothing until yesterday came with a sketch from yet again Sassy Studios...

 

 

Although I have slighty changed the main shape of the sketch, from an oval to rectangular image  I think I have kept pretty much to it and it seemed like a plan to go the whole hog and get completely sassy.

Ok yeah I know, it doesnt look very sassy does it and other than the wee crown above the sentiment there isnt an image either... At least not until you open up the card where it gets a tad bit ermmm naughty if you like...

 

Along with the hop and Lyndsay's awesome drawing came a challenge following the theme of 'Fifty Shades...' to use Miss Shady Sassy in a grey, black and white colour scheme. So thats how this card came about, im loveing it personally and cant wait to see the look on Rob's face when he opens it :)

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges -

SassyStudioDesigns - fifty-shades-of-sassy blog hop
SassyStudioDesigns - dare-to-be-sassy Thursday


Thanks for stopping by,
Have a lovely evening whatever you're doing
