So Sweet

Good Morning All
 I went to back Specialist on Tuesday and he is sending me for an MRI scan, he said i have 'old' bones and it is the bottom two vertebrae that are causing me problems, he does not think it is a trapped nerve though.  They, the hospital, will ring with an appointment. Iam feeling better but it is still niggling, so going to go through with all this as I do suffer with back ache on and off.
**************
Moving Along With The Times challenge time and the theme has been chosen by Sarah - So Sweet - and by this she means either food or a sweet image.

Warning - Large photo post coming up!!!!!!!

I used a  6 x 6  and a 5 x 5 scalloped card blank, scored the smaller one at half way point on each side.





The top picture is the outside back view when it is stood up, and these two are the front and the back if you know what I mean.

Decorated with same paper and card as the inside.
Cheery Lynne Chrysanthemum die, crochet flower (for sale in my etsy shop in sidebar)







This is the inside when it is laid flat.

LOTV toppers of mice eating chocs and drinking Champers.








Most of the die cuts are Memory Box
Homemade bead pin (for sale in side bar)
Doily inked on edges
Cheery Lynne die cut roses
Homemade crochet butterfly
Joanna Sheen ribbon



These last couple of pictures show how much the light alters the colour of the card.

It is a very bright green card with pink checked paper 'Spring Chic' Me to You.

Pop over to the Challenge blog and have a go.
There is a prize on offer this week too.

I sent this to my MIL for Mothers Day and this is what she posted on FB
 Have just received the most amazing card for Mothering Sunday, not just a card, an impressive work of art that must have taken hours, so much detail, too attractive to end in a drawer....... so very appreciated. Thank you Wendy and John.

    WOW Wendy love this design, if you don't mind I may have to steal this idea. So different and I have a card to make for a little girl and I feel she would love this style. Just watched John's video and Magic Hands aka Wendy did a sterling job.

    This is fantastic Wendy. Love the way you've used the two card blanks. I might have to have a go at that.

    I hope you get your back sorted. I'm struggling a bit with mine at the moment so I know how you feel.

    Hugs Helen xx

    Hi Wendy
    Love how you have put this together, indeed, much to good to end up in a drawer. Not surprised that MiL is chuffed.
    Good luck with your back.

    Oh Wow! what a fab design Wendy… I love the fab images and the the gingham with the green is gorgeous… so many lovely details on this card! :-)
    Hope your MRI Scan goes ok.. it's the bottom discs on my spine that give me the most trouble and a facet joint... they are right near the nerve! very painful.
    Have a lovely evening!
