Chrissie's World: Life Taking Over

Life Taking Over

Hi Everyone... sorry I haven't posted in a while but life is taking over right now. We had to put my Dad into a nursing home this week. He has dementia and is no longer able to look after himself at home. It is a lovely place that is brand new- only 7 weeks old- and looks like a resort. He is not completely convinced that he should be there but it will be great for him. He will have people there to keep him company when we cannot be there and they will ensure that he eats well and takes his medication when needed.

This card I made ages and ages ago... so long in fact, I forgot I had made it! LOL I am sure I cased this from SCS but I cannot find where so if you recognise it please let me know. I love the simplicity of this card. I really should use my wheels more often.

Colours: Creamy Caramel and Whisper White.
Stamps: Leaf Prints Wheel, Wonderful Words
Accessories: Taupe Ribbon

Again I have cased this card but again I have no idea from who. (And I did go and try to search SCS for it, but there are 792 pictures in there of Bold Butterfly and I just can't find it!) I love the colour combination of this card. I usually use Soft Subtles for this stamp set but when I saw this, I knew I had to give it a try.

Colours: Summer Sun, Ruby Red, Black
Stamps: Bold Butterfly, Warm Regards

I hope that life settles soon and I can get back to posting more regularly.
Cheers,
Chrissie

Thanks for posting these cards - they are lovely and I got some new ideas from them!
