Here is a card that I've made for my mum to simply say "thank you". We have just been on an amazing trip to Europe and Italy together, which is why I haven't been around blog-land for awhile... We had a fantastic 4 weeks away, saw lots, and caught up with family. So grateful for this opportunity!
Anyway, this project has been CASE'd from Teneale Williams - love her work! I wanted to make mum an extra-special card, and I think the layers, the sponging, seam binding and pearls do it all. Enjoy!
On a personal note (I seem to be doing a lot of these at the moment!) I saw my oncologist last week, and she doesn't want to see me for another 3 months, unless I need to, and if I start displaying the same symptoms as I was before being diagnosed. It's been just over a year, which is hard to believe. I am now working 20 hours a week which feels great, and I'm slowly but surely getting my energy back. It's all good! I think the trip was a fantastic way to build up my stamina to cope with extra hours at work. It's been a long journey, but I'm doing well - yay!
