Vellum roses...

This is a card I've done for an elderly lady who has just come out of hospital.  She loves pink and vellum so I decided to stamp on to some pink shaded vellum from my stash and then emboss the image using fine white embossing powder.  The image,which is one by Elusive Images,  was stamped several times so that I could cut out sections and decoupage it.

I've also used the pink shaded vellum laid over the top of white card to create the background and done the same thing using the scalloped nestie.

The sketch is from Truly Scrumptious and unfortunately I'm rather late at entering as I believe the challenge ends today, but not to worry it's a great sketch and certainly one I will use again.

My card is also for the challenges at...

• Alphabet Challenge - Pink
• Pile it On - Flowers
• Creative Card Crew - Get Well Soon

Last day at work today and the thought of that might just mean catching the bus at 5.30 this morning a little more bearable.  Then I'm off on holiday for a whole week - SQUEAL - not that I'm excited or anything.  SQUEAL!!! 
The first aid course yesterday was brilliant.  I must admit that I was dreading it as the ones I've been on before have been so boring, but the tutor for this one was really down to earth and 'real' about things.  
I feel like I could cope with most things that could happen now although I am a little worried about Carol, who I was on the course with.  She said she had enjoyed it so much that she almost felt like pushing someone under a bus on the way home so that she could try out her new skills.  I work with some strange people and I'm not talking about the ones I support either. 
Irene and Max don't worry you'll be safe in York I'm not that enthusiastic.  If you do have an accident though I know exactly what to do.  Shout for John.  He was the really clever guy in the DVD who could cope with anything.  Tee hee!
Have a great day everyone and if you do have an accident of any kind don't forget shout for John - he's brilliant.
