My first card in over a year!.. Feeling Spoilt (All Dressed Up)

Image
Hello!

After 16 months off from cardmaking I'm finally getting back into it!

I started with a CAS design and this pretty image Feeling Spoilt by All Dressed Up which was a lovely image to get me back into colouring again!

I added a nice spotty pink ribbon, patterned paper and sentiment from my stash, and popped on a few gems. I also glittered the present with stickles and put foam pads under the sentiment.








I hope you're all well and look forward to catching up with all your makes soon!

I've been on holiday!

Image
Hi everyone!
Sorry I've been absent for a few weeks!  I've been on holiday to North Devon for 2 weeks!
It was a very long journey for me and any movement is very hard for me to tolerate. I booked the holiday last year before my ME declined badly again unfortunately 
I was in a bad way for the first few days after the journey and mainly in bed, but just look at my bedroom view!
I spend most of my day in bed anyway so knew I had to get somewhere with a view! Wish I had that view at home!! Lol
From the balcony:


Luckily I then managed quite a few trips out and we had lovely weather too!
