I`m back, finally!

Evening all. I`m finally able to get into my craft room and start crafting. YIPEE!! I am feeling a lot better now. Almost back to where i was. I have also finally got an appointment with the job-center to see their disability adviser about helping me get back into work. I am only looking for part time work that's all i can manage with my M.E, just got to wait and find the right job that suits me(something that doesn't involve using too much energy). I`m hoping to have a little news for you all soon but i`m keeping tight lipped just in case it doesn't happen.
Anyway onto the card i have for you today.

The image is from Stempelgledge and i have used one of the stamps from the grunge flourish hearts collection. I have also used the small edge stamp from that set to go around the border. On the opposite corners i have used the corner stamp the grunge collection. All have been stamped and heat embossed using a pink embossing powder, its from eBay(no name). The DP is one from Memory box gossamer collection. I have inked the edges, and the background of the heart with distress ink Victorian velvet. Glitter around the edges is stickles crystal. White ribbon is from eBay.
