Hello everyone... well.. i don't want to be presumptuous but i think i am finally turning a corner .
I feel like i have been poorly with this stinking cold forever! - well actually just over a week but its felt like an age.
I had the most horrendous migraine on Friday - ouch my head hurt .. and i couldn't even look at the screen on my phone .. but after nearly 48 hours sleep and some good tablets .. i feel a lot better than i did .
I even made it into the craft room.. and had a little dabble.
This is one of my makes .. for a friend who has had a sad time lately .
I have had this Garden bench delight digi image printed out from Ladybug crafts Ink since well before Christmas but not coloured - and i thought it would make a lovely Thinking of You card .
I coloured it with my markers ... i say markers cos i used a mixture now of Promarkers, spectrum noirs and flexi markers .. i have lots of each lol.. so i just use them together .
The Marianne die cut butterfly is a recent purchase from the Sir Stampalot sale - and the little glass dewdrops were from one of my Secret Santas .. i think the sentiment is Craftwork cards and the bow from my stash .
The papers as always from my stash .. and as you can see i even decorated the inside - because the lady who i am sending this to always decorates the inside of hers.. and i thought she would appreciate it .
I would like to enter the following challenges
Diva's by design- anything goes
Passion for Promarkers - Peach and blue
Try it on Tuesday - New stash
Sorry i haven't been round much this week - wont attempt to catch up.. but hope to be round a bit more this week

So glad to hear you have turned a corner Lisa, just don't be going mad yet. I was exhausted for ages after I thought I was over it, wobbly legs syndrome lol. I love your card and its just perfect for a thinking of you.
Hope you are well on the mend now Lisa - there's just nothing worse than that full of cold achy feeling - I love this card, people and little characters are lovely to colour but sometimes a scene can be very satisfying - I really like your layout and that fab butterfly - hope you have a good week this week hugs Judith x
What a beautiful serene creation Lisa

Gorgeous card, Lisa! Wish I could sit there. If it was in my garden at present I would get a very cold wet bum though as we had a couple of centimetres of snow. Was hoping for a bit more so I could stay at home and craft rather than go to work! Pleased to hear you are feeling better. Sleep is a very good medicine! Hope you continue to mend xxx
Thinking of you indeed - glad you are feeling better. You must have been ill, as you stopped blogging! Love your card as I'm sure ur friend will. Hope u have a better week. Jx

Hi Lisa, I'm glad to hear you're feeling better now. I'm touching lots of wood because thankfully DH and I have escaped any ailments so far, although the rest of the family have all had various bugs. Don't know how we've missed them! Your card is beautiful. I love that butterfly, and what a lovely stamp too. Your friend will love it.
Hugs, Lynne xx

Lovely card Lisa and I'm so glad you're feeling better!
I have everything crossed that you are 100% better soon!
A gorgeous card - it makes me wanna smile thinking of Spring around the corner (I hope!!)
I must have an anti bug bubble around me Lisa because apart from a slight cold I've not been ill in years. I've now probably jinxed that and will be bedridden by the end of the week lol. I've had this image colored up for months now (or more) and it hasn't made it onto a card yet but think that will change now (once I've found it)I've seen your fabulicious card. Love the soft colors of the pp and Mary J is right...hopefully spring is around the corner. xx
So glad you're starting to feel a bit better Lisa... you seem to have been ill for a while lately! Anyway, glad to have you back in blogland!
Lovely card... fab image, and as you say, perfect for a think of you card.
Hugs
