Going round and round

I have dragged myself off  my sickbed to bring you this tale of woe, sob sob. As I mentioned previously, a couple of weeks or so ago, my DH came down with a horrid cold, swiftly followed by my youngest son. Once they were a little better, I fell ill. After a few days I felt better and thought we were back to normal. Oh no, no such luck. As soon as I was well, both husband and son went down with the same horrid coughy cold with me looking after them. They got a little better, and then, you guessed it, I went down with it again. I'll spare you the details though, lol, but I might not be around for another couple of days.

Had to remind you that I am still alive though, lol, so I am showing you my Tag Tuesday tag ( thankfully made in advance ) and a few tags which went out with customer orders. 

Tag Tuesday theme was VALENTINE -






I came across this beautiful painting a while ago and thought she would look lovely on some tags -


and a card or two -



Oh, and I had to make a couple of tiny little boxes, one for a rosary and one for a beautiful religious brooch pin -


I hope you are all well and keeping busy creating beautiful new treasures. I a off to bed again :-(. Toodlepip xxx

I've been so very lucky this winter, I haven't caught the bug yet. I sure hope I didn't just jinx myself.

Your tags are simply the best!

Last year we had a horrible flu thing going round over here too. It makes people have a horrible hacking cough, so I can feel for you. It is such na miserable thing, and lasts for weeks.I do hope you get well soon.
I was the only one who got it because I think I already have asthma. The Asthma clinic told me there were many hundreds of ill people coming thru the door.
Take care!!

Liz!!!!
You won Judy's prize from the GYB Giveaway! Congrats! I wond some beautiful hearts from her two years ago for the GYB giveaway and I adore them! She embroidered each heart, on different fabric in different patterns. And now I have put them in an old jar and have a jar of love from Judy! She also gave me a fabric rose that is burned around the edges that sits atop the jar. And a cute doily! You will love whatever it is she sends you !!!
I love your tags, dear girl, and the woman you used is so charming!!! Each one of your detailed cards and tag are just beauties, in and of themselves!
I too am on the second round of the virus I cought in Germany!!! And many friends in the states have had it as well. Viruses do move swiftly around the world sometimes. I hope you get better soon, take good care girl, I would make you my gluten free chicken noodle soup if I could. Hugs and healthy wishes to you,
Betsy
