CPS #52

Another "catch-up" card. This is Dad's birthday card but as he's going to be in hospital for his birthday I tried to keep it fairly simple (which is how he likes it!):

I used: Bazzill and DCWV cardstock, Papermania papers, Cuttlebug Olivia die-cut alphabet, American Crafts ribbon, HOTP buttons and brad, Heidi Grace sentiment stamp, Colorbox chalk ink.

Just spoken to my sister and found out that instead of giving Dad an ultrasound today they did a bone marrow biopsy instead to find out why he's so anaemic. He's also got a very low potassium level so is having it supplemented in a drip but they're still no closer to a diagnosis. One bit of good news though is that he has now managed to get a private consultant and is tonight being moved to a private room where at last he may be able to get peace and quiet and some sleep!

This is a great card, and you coordinated the colors beautifully! I hope they get your dad's problems all figured out soon, glad he's at least getting some privacy.
