Fairy Tales at One Stop Crafts

Good afternoon folks sorry I've still not caught up with you all yet but my hubby Terry has been very poorly again but we now know what is wrong he has Adult-onset Still's disease which he has been telling the DRs for ages he has been put on steroids he has an appointment to see a consultant on Tuesday the same that I'm under as well so he will be able to get better medication, he has had it before and it went away but is now back with a vengeance it effects his liver quite badly at the mo and suffering extreme fatigue,things should settle down soon on top of all this we are carers for my mil who lives with us.

Anyway I have a gift tag to show you today as I had made a card but messed it up so i had to make something quickly and its for The One Stop Crafts and the theme this week is Fairy Tales we are being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs the image I've used is Princess Ariel she was a favourite of my daughters Keely when she was little girl and is now a favourite of her Daughter Lexi (my granddaughter):)



I've coloured her with my copic markers I've not done red hair before the papers are a freebie from papercraft essentials called sweet wishes.

I best be off now to cook dinner for MIL as she wont even try to do it herself I'm sure she thinks she's in a hotel lol and Terry is asleep so it looks like i'll be doing separate dinners for all of us today.

Thanks for stopping by I will catch up soon roll on next week for my treatment and boy do I need it lol.

From Me To You

Good afternoon folks I hope you are all well and not suffering any of these nasty bugs that are going around, as for me I seem to be getting one after the other after having pneumonia a couple of years back as soon as I get a cough it goes straight to my chest and hubby is laughing as I can barely speak lol! I've not done much crafting as I just haven't got the energy and keep nodding off to sleep would you believe i even fell asleep on the loo lol not a pretty sight I might add! any way I made this card but its taken me about three days to make it lol.



It seems like its taken for ever for these little cuties to be made into rubber my daughter is chuffed to bits not that she makes anything lol, the papers are also from me to you.
