Broken bones and birthdays!


Hello!
Well its been a really bizarre 24 hours! My little boy (yes I know he's nearly 15 and is 6 foot tall!!) broke his collar bone last night whilst playing Bull dog with his mates. Luckily he's doing OK but is feeling very tired and a little bit sheepish!! Bless him though...he's not moaned once today about it and will hopefully be back at school tomorrow.
As you know we were meant to go back to Gibraltar this month for a visit but Belle came down with chicken pox which put a hold on everything! Originally we should have been going in July for a friends 40th...so the tickets were booked today...YIPEE!!
Not sure who in the house is more excited but I have made both children PROMISE that nothing else will happen to either one of them before we go!! LOL!
Well July is a month full of birthdays so I thought I had better get cracking on the old cards. This one is using Basic Grey Sultry papers. The stamp is a PB from an image swop. I've also used this card for the cutecardthursday challenge which was to make a birthday card.
I hope everyones ok and I hope a certain person got her blog fixed!! LOL!
Hugs,

LOL @ me, a lesson in how NOT to try and fix things when they are not broken, also to not mess about with templates after two glasses of wine!!
Hope your young man feels ok again soon, poor thing, my son broke his collar bone last year riding into a wall on a pushbike *roll eyes* and it is so painful at times!
Love the card and exciting news for your visit. I bet you are so looking fwd to seeing your friends :-D
