Blue for a boy!

Hello all and just a quick post from me. Sorry for being absent from Blogland for a few days but having some problems - I mentioned a month or so ago about a cyst in my upper jaw, and unfortunately it flared up badly over the weekend.  I won't go into the gory details, but now have numerous antibiotics and painkillers, had to have treatment yesterday and back again tomorrow.  But at least the swelling has started to reduce a bit - I looked like an extra from a Shrek film!  Or, as my husband and son put it, I looked like one of those warning pictures for what happens when botox goes wrong....  That made me feel so much better - NOT!  Good job I know they love me really lol!  Anyway, once all the meds have got working and I feel a bit more normal, I'll hopefully get back to the craft table and have a surf round Blogland!

Just thought I'd share a card that I made a few days ago (before problems!). This is using Lili of the Valley stamp 'Lazy Afternoon'

I've coloured the image with copics and Graph its and used some Panpastel and chalks on the background. 

The backing papers are from LOTV, with coredinations card. I've added Marianne die cut leaves and Spellbinders 'persian accents' die cuts on the corners. The sentiment tags are also from LOTV, with some seam binding ribbon. 

So quite a simple one, but I love these cute LOTV boys! 

I hope that your week goes well - and I'll be back soon (and visiting blogs!).  Thanks for all your lovely comments - they always mean so much and give me the encouragement to keep crafting even when I'm feeling a bit fed up with everything!
