Happy Anniversary 2016 Mr Duck. . . . . . . . .


Good morning everyone. Hope you are all well. I've not had a great week, to be honest, with an A/Fib issue most days but trying to ride out the storm at home rather than going into hospital as long as my pulse stays below 120 (I have a monitor).
I should have my Echo results shortly, as the department has been without a typist for 2 weeks but she is back now and will hopefully send my letter sometime this week (NHS cutbacks I guess that they can't draft another typist from somewhere else)
Mind you, there's lots worse off than me so its naughty of me to grizzle.

Anyhoo, on to happier things. Today is mine and Mr D's Wedding Anniversary. He's not at work but I shall see how I feel before we decide what to do with the day. He would be happy parked in his chair with a bacon sarnie in one hand and a sudoku in the other, watching re-runs of The Bill on Freeview but it would be nice to have a pootle out somewhere for some fresh air for me.


Ingredients
Cream, black and red card
Sue Wilson Cygnus Gemini die
SB Twisted Metal Tags and Accents die (Cut twice for shadow effect)
SB Medallion One die
SB Fancy Tags One (Framed-but without the frame lol!!!)
X Cut Circles die
X Cut Alphabet die
CE Swirling Hearts embossing folder
John Lockwood Flower Hearts Elements Stamps (Sentiment and foliage)
Black and red ribbon
Black PVA pearls
Black Archival ink

PHEW !!!


Now, I know its very ornate for a fella but Mr D has been faithfully by my side these last few weeks, even when he's been completely exhausted trying to work and stay awake all hours when holding my hand at the hospital in the wee small hours, so I felt I needed to inject a bit of grandeur and make it special to show my appreciation (without involving chocolate or Toad in the Hole)
Not easy when the mojo has sent a postcard from Madagascar saying its not due home any time soon so I understand it may look a little OTT or die cut heavy for some of you.

Hopefully, Mr D will like it and bless him, he did agree I could schedule this for 6am still, even though he probably won't have seen it himself by this point (Hopefully, we are both looking at the inside of our eyelids at 6am)

Thank you, as always, for your kind and generous comments. Hope today brings you all happiness, whatever you are doing.

TTFN

Ps.......Maureen, I have now amended my last post and put names to the faces on the pictures. Apologies, it was remiss of me not to do it previously...........good luck making out any faces on that blurred snap lol!!!

  2. It is beautiful and he will love it! I sometimes despair of teh NHS. In some regards it is brilliant, but badly lets itself - and it's patients - down. Anyway hopefully you will get teh results of the echo and they will be able to form a treatment protocol for yoi. Chin up kidda!

  12. Hi Ang and Mr Duck,
    Congratulations on your Anniversary today.
    I love this very stunning card, and the design is spectacular.
    I bet Mr Duck loved it.
    Not sure you need Mr Mojo back from his hols as you have made such a wonderful card with out him.
    ssssssssshhhhhhhhhh don't tell him I said that as he may not come back at all. LOL.
    So sorry to hear you are having more health issues.
    I do hope you will soon be A 1 again.
    On another note I have got the dreaded 24hr blood pressure monitor fitted again today as they said the darn thing last time wouldn't read out. Boo Hoo.
    Hope you have a wonderful day together and have gone somewhere nice.
    Big hugs from my house to yours.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

  13. Wow, a big Happy Anniversary for you and Mr D!! I hope you had a wonderful day yesterday and you were able to get out of the house (although I agree with Mr D, can't go wrong with a bacon sandwich)! What a fabulous card. Love the colours, very striking. Not over the top at all, but you arm must have been tired from all the cranking of your die machine. Well worth it. hugs :)
