Tilda's Christmas Box

Hi all! Before i share my creation i will give you an update on my surgery!

I arrived at the hospital at 7.30am, had the surgery at 11.00 and i was home by 1.30pm.

The consultant said that when he went into my knee i had torn cartilage and he removed them, also because my knee has been bent for 3 months he gave it a few pushes and pulls to loosen it up.

When i got home i just slept for hours, woke up had something to eat and then straight back to sleep, mind you i've been up since 3.00am this morning.

I started this box on Tuesday before i went in to hospital and this morning i have finished it!

Hope you like it!

Image - Magnolia's  'Joyful Tilda', Sentiment stamp is Marianne D's.

Medium - Sepia Archival Ink, Copics and TH Distress Markers

Tools - Magnolia's 'Sprawling Ferns' and 'Poinsettia'. Marianne D's Clock die, Go Kreate die and Spellbinders ribbon label.

Embellishments - Prima's 'Velvet trinkette', ribbon from Crafty Ribbons, Lace, flowers and brad are from my stash.
