Party Time

Hi there, well i went to the hospital yesterday to see if my ear op in March was successful. The good news was that it was a success but the bad news is that my hearing hasn't improved enough so they will have to fit 2 hearing aids which i will have a 3 month wait for! Well at least the op worked! Hubby had an appointment at the same hospital same time and it's all good news the blood is flowing freely through the veins in his leg, which means his op to remove the blood clot has worked!!

Now onto my card for today, i have used a cute little image called Brat Girl holding Balloon, which was part of my prize for winning the Craft Your Passion challenge.
