i have decided to have a bit of a CRAFTING BREAK , with all that has gone on with my brother since his accident last May , i am feeling very tired and find i am having less time and not much mojo to create cards.. also myself and my husband are travelling to America to visit my brother soon for 10 days.. for anyone following my facebook will know with many ups and downs over the last 4 months ~ he is now out of his coma and only this week beginning to speak, and trying to use his left hand .. (and with all the positive news of michael schumacher) we are feeling very optimistic..... although he is still on a ventilator and daily kidney dialysis, and fighting MRSA...

please keep my brother and my parents, my brothers wife and children in your prayers

 XX thankyou XX
