Back in action...


Almost two weeks ago I had a fall when I came out of the dentist and ended up in A&E with a broken metatarsal and fracture... didn't find it easy using crutches and had to sit with my foot elevated for a week...down to one crutch now so I am able to get in my craft room...yiippeee.

I've made a couple of these cards for friends Anniversaries using SU Designer paper that went with the Free as a bird set.  At least I could sit a fussy cut the little birds and flowers.
Hubby has been brilliant cooking, cleaning, washing & ironing and looking after me so well...

It's also been a worrying time for us as our eldest daughter and family have all had Covid...the children weren't too bad but our daughter and SIL were quite poorly...thankfully they are now getting better.


Thanks for passing by

Great card idea for an anniversary and good to see that you didn't waste your time while resting your foot!!

Viv said...

Oh my Anne! I hope you are getting better and managing to get about in the house a little (not too much mind, otherwise you're new 'Home Help' will think he can have a holiday!)
It sounds like it has been a very worrying time for you all but glad that things are improving.
Lovely card too. Stay safe. xx

Oh dear Anne, so sorry I know how uncomfy that is as did the same a few years ago. Also sorry your family had COVID, our youngest son had it at Christmas and it really took it out of him - and he's the fit one who is a professional athlete. I went for my COVID jab today, came home not having it as it was the Oxford one which is not recommended for MS patients - stupidity of the system they have no idea of your history until you get there and tell them. And the most stupid part, there is no facility to put you back into the system.

Anyhows, enough of my moaning you card is beautiful.

Oh Anne - I am so sorry about your fall! I did not know. I haven't fallen for a while but I often times call myself the Queen of Falls. I walk very carefully now because I am afraid I might fall. And coming out of a dentist office - now that is injury on top of insult!
Glad you are able to get around a little better.
I love birds and have several feeders up in our yard. So you know I love this card - congratulations on a sweet and very attractive card.
Sandy xx
