Morning all hope you all had a good weekend, for me it was very distressing, my Dad had a stroke and we went to the home to see him the Dr said he was in his later stages of dementia and they couldn't do anything for him , it was awful, it had affected his speech he couldn't talk Friday night, he was trying to tell me something I felt so useless I couldn't understand him, we didn't expect him to be with us for long.
We went in yesterday morning and by some miracle he was sitting up eating his breakfast we couldn't believe
it, we were so relived the staff at the home couldn't believe it, he is a fighter my Dad he wasn't ready to leave us yet thank goodness, it has affected his speech slightly, but there is still time for improvement.
Anyway on to a more brighter note, it is PINK (Breast Cancer Month) at Lexis Creations this week and we are sponsored by My Heart Pieces.
For my card I have used some backing papers from Nigel May's all kind of everything CDRom, my image is Elaina from Fairy Dust Crafts, I have used some pink card for matting and layering and embellishments from my stash,
I have used some glitter on and around my image, I am looking forward to looking at all your gorgeous creations.
Pop over to my fellow teamie's blogs to give you some inspiration.

Make It Monday - Anything Goes.

This is such a gorgeous card and being a square card fiend myself you have inspired me to try to make some rectangle shaped cards. I was so sorry to hear about your Dad but glad that there is some improvement, lets hope it won't be long before he is back to his old self.
