Bugaboo Day 7

The theme for the Bugaboo 6th Birthday Bash is a recipe :1 animal, 2 layers, 3 brads, bling or buttons.

 Having limited supplies is a bit challenging, and I cannot find the bling a brought with me- luckily, I found three rhinestones here : )   I was also not sure whether the base layer is one and the elephant layer is two, so to be on the safe side, I went with the above card.

  Dad is having a rough day today, feeling aches and pains as people do after surgery.....  He is doing better than I expected and I am thankful for that.  He is very chatty and knows all of the staff, who is married, where everyone lives, etc.......even when he does not feel well.
  I am hanging in there- have a stuffy head and cough that is making me have full out asthma attacks- got started on antibiotics and steroids tonight.......  Oh boy!

Anyway, Happy 6th Birthday to Bugaboo!  Thanks for a fun challenge- I now have a few B-day cards on hand : )

Thanks for stopping by!
Shelly

Ah Shelly so glad your darling dad is on the mend, my dad turns 87 in March this year, and he is not grand as far as his heart goes, as his valves are gradually shutting down, but he soldiers on. ... Praying for healing for yours, and for your dear mum too.
Love your Bugboo cards you've excelled your self, in spite of the limited stash to hand.
Love and God bless sis Shaz in Oz.x

Such an adorable card. You did an awesome job with limited supplies. And congrats on the big win! I jumped for joy when I saw your name. Hope you are feeling better soon. That has to be tough when you have your Dad to take care of worry over. I'll keep you both on my prayer list. Have a great week.

The Elly is adorable, and love the stripey paper too. I hear you about not being home, and not having your stash to hand. Glad to hear your Dad is doing better too. He sounds like a friendly fella, knowing the folks who are taking care of him. That's a really nice personality trait I think. Sorry to hear about the coughing, etc. Hopefully the meds will take effect fast, and you will be able to shake the attack symptoms quickly. (Been there, done that, so I know exactly what you're talking about!). TFS & Hugs.
