another fairy card

as I have done nothing new here's a fairy card I did about 3 weeks' ago, for my son's friend who has moved into a nice new flat somewhere in Norwich. It's a mixture of distress and glittery bling!


My hubby is in hospital at the moment, in Cape Town. He was due to have surgery today but he wasn't quite fit enough, so it's now pencilled in for Wednesday. It is major surgery so of course we are all concerned. Meanwhile for two days here we've been without water: in the middle of a heatwave, with temps in the 40s for over a week, they say say there is a 'cold front' coming soon: temps will 'drop' to 26 degrees, they do make me laugh! Luckily the water came back this evening: boy was that first shower bliss!

As usual you did a wonderful card! It is very suitable for Mother's Day which was celebrated yesterday in Romania. I pray for your husband and hope that tomorrow everything will be fine.

Lovely, lovely card. I don't think I could handle those temperatures. I might complain about all our snow and cold this winter I'll take it over your temps. Hope your dh is doing fine.
