Its so good to be back blogging, I hope the New year has started off well for you all and that it continues that way throughout 2013.
Keeping it brief, my heart investigation went very well. It was discovered I had a second by-pass graft that had failed but it appears to be making its own blood flow supply through minor vessels so with medication and good care it will hopefully improve like the first one. Also suspected I may have another Peptic ulcer so will get that sorted.Thank you so much to those that sent good wishes and said prayers, I am so very grateful.
Now to get back to Cardmaking :)) I have been playing over the past couple of days and decided I would keep things simple till I got back into it...and till I could get all my craft things out again. I thought I would never find them ever again after hiding them away at Christmas, Anyway this is what I came up with, I used to join "Less is More"challenges when they first started but I wasn't much good at them I guess so I gave them up as a bad job....lol Well I decided to have another go, but still not sure I have improved at all :0 I stamped the border panel with 3 different stamps from Urban Botanical print matted the panel on Black card.
