Just about recovered!

Hi
Sorry not been on for a while, my nasty cold and chest infection, coupled with four nights without sleep, just wiped me out! I think the weekend was when I felt almost back to normal, well, as normal as I get! Haven't finished my 'Wincy' tribute yet, some of the older photos are in boxes, so need to go on pc first. However, I did manage to finish a card that my daughter asked for. She wanted something cute, but red! So, used a Tatty Teddy stamp, and coloured with Promarkers. Matted it onto red mirri card, and sanded the edges. Made a plain white card blank, and covered it with red and white snowflake paper, from a Cuddly Buddly download, I think. Then a piece of card embossed with snowflakes, with a piece of silver ribbon as trim. Used a small chipboard snowflake, and embossed it with red and white, and attached it with a snowflake brad to a piece of silver ribbon. Added a few gems. Die cut a label shape, and edged with red ink. Stamped the sentiment from the Me to You stamp set in red. Then embossed the whole thing with UTEE clear, to try and give the effect of ice. Edged the card with red glitter pen. Katy is pleased with it anyway, which I guess is all that matters. Hope you're all coping with the weather, much better here at the moment, cold and dry, just what a Northerner is used to! Stay safe, back soon. X
