Bruno Bear's Party

Hi all, have you checked out my candy yet, here's the link CANDY!
My card today is made using an A6 cream card and i cut the aperture using my Marianne D's Lacey Rectangle die. I then used the die again to cut some blue card, cut out the centre and voila!
I stamped my cute WOJ stamp called Bruno Bear With Cupcake and i coloured him with my Copic markers. I then cut my La La Land heart banner die and my WOJ Grass die, finished off with a sentiment!

Take A Seat..........

On my Pretty Pink & White altered chair!!
Sorry that i wasn't around for the last couple of days but the painkillers are making me very sleepy through the day and i can't sleep at night! I went to see the Physiotherapist yesterday and he wants to see me again on the 22nd and if there is no improvement he will refer me back to the hospital as there may be something wrong with my cartlidge.
Well all of that didn't stop me enjoying some sunshine and altering an old dining chair which hubby was going to chop up, the shame! lol! I never throw anything away!
So here is what the result looks like.
