Happy Birthday Cardinal

Good morning blog friends I hope you are all well?

As you know its been a while, but i think i've found my crafting mojo again

it was hiding away in a cupboard lol, having now found it maybe 

its time to pick up the Copics and have a play, although they all desperately

need cleaning and I only have a little amount of cleaner left ...... arghh.

I have a birthday card to share with you lovely peeps, Mum asked me 

to make it for her for my uncle, I always try and use an image

 that means something to the recipient, he loves birds he used to have a

canary. I couldn't find a canary image so i used this Cardinal stamp by 

DoveArt collection over at Whimsy Stamps the DP are from The Pink Petticoat 

now known as The Lovely Studio, The Dies are from MFT Stamps

and Crafters Companion.

My mum had some bad news with 

regards to her cancer she has stage 4 metastatic Breast cancer, it 

basically means that her breast cancer has spread to another part of her body,

she has it in her shoulder bone, Thankfully it is  small at the moment so 

it's not painful and she is coping really well. The Breast cancer seems 

to be responding well to the chemo and hormone therapy which 

is awesome considering she only been on it for a couple

of months. She one tough cookie, this isn't her first battle with Cancer

so heres hoping that she fights it with all that she's got.
