Recovering.................

After a dreadful few weeks which started with my MIL being rushed into hospital with heart problems, followed by losing my precious kitty to a tumour & the next day having surgery myself, the electrics failing in our house .....
the list just seems to go on!

Well I'm finally recovering & managed to do my first crafting for a while ........



This is my postcard for the November postcard swap over on UK Stampers
The theme is fireworks


I used my 'blob' stamp which reminded me of the burst of a firework & used Perfect Medium & glitter embossing powders to achieve the firework burst effect.


I used blue distress inks for the background 'sky'


and a small alphabet set for remember & the November & 5 from a stamp set to do the wording.

I love to join in with the postcard swap - it's lovely to get something nice in the post each month :-)
