Sweet Fairy

Hello all and apologies for being AWOL - but quite a busy time at work and a rather stressful time at home. I hope that you are starting to enjoy some spring sunshine - and definitely less rain and cloud.  Thank you for all your good wishes and comments about Tilly the Dog.  Sadly the medications she is taking don't seem to be helping now as much as we'd wished.  Thankfully she doesn't seem to be in any pain, but is steadily losing her mobility and balance, so the vet feels that it's only a matter of time. As long as she's not in pain we're just taking each day at a time and enjoying the time we have with her. She's always been a very spoilt pooch - particularly in terms of affection! - and is now getting extra extra kisses and hugs!

Just thought I'd share a little card with you and I decided to make a crisscross style card with a gorgeously cute image from Mo's digital pencil


I've coloured the image with soft pastel colours using copic pens and a touch of pencil - and a touch of glittery Stickles on the wings

The backing papers are from LOTV. I've used a Martha Stewart punch on the edges, with ribbon and some flowers from stash.  Hope you like it!


I'll try and get around and see what everyone's been up to - and I hope you all get some May spring sunshine this week. And thank you for all your kind and supportive comments - they mean so much.

Back soon,
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-
Mo's Digital Challenge - whimsical images
Crafty Bloggers Network - pink and ribbon

  2. Such a beautiful card Kim. I love the sweet image, pretty colours and gorgeous papers too.
    Sorry to hear that Tilly's medication is not helping her as much as you wished it would, thank goodness she doesn't seem to be in pain and is enjoying all the love shown to her.
    Take care, Sue xx

  3. Hi Kim, awww that is one adorable image and a beautiful card.

    I'm sorry to hear Tilly is not so well, it's very difficult to watch a pet fail, been there a few times with the cats. Still at least you know she's had a happy life with the family and is well loved.

    I hope things get less stressful for you soon,
    Sarah

  4. Hi Kim, I'm so sorry to hear Tilly's not well :( That's such a sad thing, watching a pet's health deteriorating, they really do become members of the family :( Big hugs to all your family, and to Tilly as well...

    Your card is beautiful, lovely colours and that image is darling.

  6. A fabulous card Kim, such a cutie and I love the design. I feel for you all and am so sorry to hear that the medication is failing to do for her what was hoped. Enjoy every day and listen to her, she'll let you know when it's time, just like our darling Mog did for us. xx

  15. This is so beautiful! I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. My dog is my baby and I understand what you are going through. (I lost another dog to cancer a few years ago. It was very, very hard at the end.) hugs to you and Tilly!

  21. Poor wee Tilly. I'm so sorry to hear the meds aren't working, I'm sure it's heartbreaking for you :(

  22. Absolutely fabulous colouring Kim... gorgeous!
    It is always so difficult to see a pet fail and have to think about life without them. I always say though, if you have to be a dog, you want your human to be an animal lover and you will have the best life ever.
