Cr***y day..pretty card....

I've had ONE CRAPPY DAY TODAY!!!! I woke up with a fierce headache at 5am (took 2 Panadol-no effect) went back to bed..got up at 6 'cos I couldn't sleep..2 more Panadol at 8am..still no effect...said Hello to the big white telephone (YUK!)..laid on the sofa feeling like hell. I'd had enough by 11am so I called the surgery,spoke to the triage nurse and she got me an appointment at 11.1o! Doctor tells me I've got 'time of life' Migraine!!! Hells Bells! I've never had a Migraine in my life let alone a 'time of life one! I wasn't even aware I'd got to that 'time of life' yet! I've also got high blood pressure (had it for 2 yrs-that's why I was worried about the headache & vomiting) so I've got to have an ECG and blood tests..it never rains but it pours!
Anyway less medical matters more cardmaking....
This is another shortfall-front card. I just love the pattern/colour combo on this card. I matted striped glittery paper and polka dot paper (DCWV) onto silver mirri and adhered the pieces to the back and front of the card. I added another panel to the front of the card with a punched trim,script paper, silver ribbon and a white poinsetta with snowflake centre. The bauble was cut from white glittercard and backed with a silver mirri embossed blackout. I added blue gems and a teeny ribbon bow. The sentiment was drawn with a blue Cri-Kit pen then coloured in with silver and blue glitter pens. A scattering of gems complete the card.
Carts used:
Bauble- Trim The Tree Seasonal Cart
