Anyway, this card has been made for my sister who is having a little bit of a hard time with her cherubs at the moment. It transpires today that Beth slept in her car last night, refusing to come home. The latest is ... she is home at the minute, has eaten, but still has the cocky i'll do just as i please attitude ... that only we can see is gonna get her into far more trouble. She was also sent home from work today, but chose to spend the time round her boyfriends rather than sorting things out with her Mum. My sister is at the end of her tether and none of us are sure in which direction to point her and what is the best advice for her, let alone what the best course of action is! It's hard trying to remove yourself from the situation to give that all important good and right advice. Especially when all we want to do is wring her bl**dy neck lol!
Whilst at Morrisons today a bought a few of my sis's fav things ... relaxing bubble bath, smelly candle, pink and whites and some one sachet drinks ... when i have a few minutes over the next few day i shall be making a little gift basket for her, keeping her Weight Watchers diet in mind lol! I just want to get a few more things first. But as soon as we're done i'll post a pic.
CS ~ Stash, DP's ~ Pink Petticoat, Sentiment ~ Elegant word art by Bethany (that figures dont it lol ... how ironic is that?), Flowers ~ made by moi, Pearls and ribbon ~ stash, Stitching ~ Sewing Machine, Image ~ Magnolia Spring Collection, coloured with Whisper Strokes, watercolour pencils and blinged with Glamour Dust.
