Make It Monday #38

Hello everyone!

Hope this Monday finds you well, atleast better than me and mine hopefully.

This last week has been a pretty bad one in my household. I have probably had a total of 20 hours sleep in the whole week as my boys have all been sick with a nasty cold that has seen them coughing their poor little lungs up each night and my youngest has been throwing up each time he coughs. Now after all that I have come down with it. So I am sorry that I was not able to get around to commenting on all your fabulous entries last week. The continued problems I am experiencing with blogger have not helped either.

Enough of my sob story now, lol. On to the more exciting stuff like

this week's featured blogger,

which is....................

Grace from Th-INK-ing Of You

with this positively gorgeous card

Isn't it stunning?!! I mean, seriously, this lovely lady has more creative talent in her little finger than I have in my whole body. I am in awe of her beautiful cards. And this little beauty is just a taste. I suggest you make yourself a cuppa and get comfy before you head on over to Grace's blog because you are going to want to stay a while.
