Some Good News & A Card....

Some good news today for our family....my grandad who has been seriously ill in hospital has made an upward turn....we have visited this afternoon and he is managing to breathe on his own.
We are delighted that he is pulling through, many a time we didn't think he would see his 85th birthday on Friday.
I feel a special card in the making......
There is still a long way to go for him but he is now hopefully on the up. He has made us laugh so much this afternoon, under the influence of the drugs he has been having game nights and allsorts in the hospital, he declined the offer we made of a disco for Friday night tho...
I feel a little lighter today x
I was up early this morning so set about making a card or two...the image was what I was going to use for a challenge but decided against it, I didn't want to leave it unused so here is the end result.

Papers, ribbons, buttons and prima flowers from my stash
