Jenni





Apologies that this card is similar to one entered into challenges last week, when I made the original card I also coloured this stamp, due to being very busy I don't have time to craft as much this week and this card fits several challenges.
 Hubby unfortunately had an altercation with a Highland cow on Thursday, he was going to help our neighbour trim them after the vet had sedated them. The sedation didn't knock them out and when the vet was administering a further dose of sedation one of them charged out of the enclosure knocking down the gate and fence, taking with it my husband and our neighbours son. Jim describes flying through the air then landing against a strainer post hitting his hip, arm and head. He also tore his back on the barbed wire fence, his jacket and t-shirt were ripped beyond repair but his cashmere jumper had only the tiniest hole in it, explain that to me. He also managed to hit his forehead on a beam after getting up .
His tetanus jabs weren't up to date and he reluctantly agreed to go to the local hospital to have one and be checked over.He's now really stiff and sore and has a beautiful array of bruises.

Quick Christmas Cards








The Challenge at ABC Christmas Challenge is for Quick and easy cards, I printed images from PC Crafter onto light weight card, die cut the top edge applied ribbon and then mounted onto my base card, 5 min tops.


Images from PC Crafter sadly now closed

Make a Silly Face






When I saw this little guy I just knew he was the right image for this sentiment from TLC. Put together there's no way you could feel downhearted.
