Birthday Fun For Tilda

Hello my friends! I was at the hospital yesterday as i had to attend the A&E Review Clinic and the findings were that i have definitely tore the ligaments in my knee. It can take just as long to heal as a break or fracture. I'm taking plenty of painkillers and i will be receiving physiotherapy.

Would you all like to have a good laugh at my photos?

As you can see i'm still managing to smile!!

Tilda's Rosette and Thank You!!

First of all i would like to thank my lovely followers who left me lovely get well wishes. 

Thank You So Much!!

As you may or not know i was in A&E on Saturday after having a fall and tearing some ligaments in my right knee. I'm getting around on the crutches ok but it's putting a lot of strain on my left leg.

I've got to go to the A&E review clinic tomorrow morning so i'll let you know how i get on!!

For my GDT card for The Dutch Magnolia Chickies Challenge click HERE!

Today i have created a rosette using Crafters Companion's Centura Pearl paper punched with my MS Eyelet Lace edge punch. I cut a Spellbinders fancy circle die and added a Magnolia Dragonfly and some Doily Flower die cuts, also a Marianne D's Ivy circle and small flower dies.

I stamped 3 mini Tildas and coloured with Distress Markers and added some glitter.

At the top i used a Magnolia 'So Lovely Swirl' tag die cut and then i finished it all off with lots of pearls, some gems, a bow and some twine. Hope you like it!!
