Still, it has kept me indoors and given me time to create and try new colour schemes ... away from my comfort zone of soft tones ... using the sort of colours I don't usually turn to ...
Having seen the challenge at Embellish Magazine and this photo ...
Aren't they lovely ... I first saw them when the talented Mona Pendleton of Cupcake Creations showed them on her blog .. "Thanks" Mona ...
I decided to make a little gift set ...
A card and cute decorated tin of sweeties ( candy) ....
My papers are a mix of digital papers from Pink Petticoat and stripe paper from Basic Grey ... my little flowers are made from tissue paper ( using my nesties) and a little flower from my stash placed in the centre. Ribbon, pearls and ric rac all from my stash .... Yes ... I actually had bright orange in my hoard!
Thank you for all your lovely comments and also to all of you who sent well wishes and words of encouragement during my times of despair ... I can today report that at least my health is much better - my doctor told me this morning that my cholesterol level has come down by half and is now perfect !! She said she doesn't know what I have done or have been doing .. but to keep doing it ... such is the pleasure of creating .......
Till soon
Ros
