Jingle belles week 3

Hi ... How are you?
I'm having a bad day today ... Just struggling with the pain in my foot ... I hate to complain .. hey there are people so much worse off than me ... I just think lack of sleep and 4 months of constant pain is getting to me today ... I will at least have some news on the 15th Feb ... but 17days seems such a long time away right now ... 
I'm not even happy with my card for this weeks challenge at Jingle Belles ... Am I miserable or what?
This week's challenge is to take our inspiration from the Jingle Belles blog header ... so beautifully designed by the clever and talented Miss Lauren ... So here's my card


glittered coated


 You can see I chose to go with the pretty bells ....

Now before I go off and pop some pills in the vain hope that they may help... I just want to say a big Thank You to the gals over at Papercraft Star for picking my book clock Here as the Super Nova winner ... Thanks to Jan of The House Across the Bay  for the beautiful images ... and if you've never visited her Etsy store .. click on the link ... there are some lovely images here.

Have yourselves a lovely Sunday 
Till soon

Poor you; I wish I could relieve the pain. Yes; 17 days is a long time. All I can do is sending love and hugs....
The fact that you are still able to create your precious gems ( they are not cards but gems) really impresses me. Not enough sleep, lots of pain. But still; another gorgeous project to look at. Love it!
Take care sweetie; thinking of you...
XXXXX
