Hi Folks
How are things with you all? I am certainly not enjoying these dark nights. All I want to do when I get home from work is curl up in front of the television lol.
The hospital appointment went okay on Monday. It does appear that I have some narrowing of the arteries which is affecting the blood flow to my legs, hence the aches and pains on exercise. The consultant is sending me for a scan and then wants to see me in 3 months to discuss further treatment. With a few lifestyle changes it may improve itself but may need to have an angioplasty. At least I now know what the problem is and can work on improving things.
But now onto crafty matters. Today sees the start of a new challenge over at Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenges. Our theme for this week is a nice easy one for you:
Anything Goes
We have two great sponsors joining us for this challenge:
Bugaboo - prize of 7 digi images to the winner
Stitchy Bear Stamps - prize of $10 voucher for their on line store
Here is my inspiration project using a great image from Stitchy Bear Stamps.
I coloured the image with promarkers before adding some faux stitching around the edge and mounting onto black cardstock. I added a bit of twine to one corner and a peel off sentiment. The backing paper are from Papermania and I simply added some black pearls to two of the corners. A great simple male card.
Thanks for popping by and looking forward to seeing all your entries. Just pop over to Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenges for full challenge details. Don't forget to check out the awesome inspiration projects from my talented teamies.
