Arty Girlz & A Bizzare Day

Yesterday I had such a violent migraine, I had to take the full day off work & stay firmly tucked up in bed. I was quite sick with it & decided home was the best place for me. I did get up at tea time to try & eat something & by 8pm felt well enough to complete this card which I began just for the hell of it on Friday night. It fits the Arty Girlz new theme, Circles so I am entering it. Im in shock this morning after been woken by the mini earthquake this morning. My bed shook so violently I was quite scared. The noise was awful, like a horror movie.
I was certain I had had a bad dream but it definately happened as my bookcase has walked forward fro the wall 3/4in! All in All a very bizzare day!

Close up of the aperture, sorry not great pictures.

Great card Paula, I love the papers and how you put the flower in the aperture. I hope you are feeling better today. I just read about the earthquake on the BBC and thought about you living over that side of the country. It must have been quite scary for you, we felt nothing over here.

Fantastic card once again Paula - love the colour combination.

I too was woken by a shaking bed! I didn't expect it to have been so far away though.

O my Goodness earthquakes on your end of the earth too! We do get tremors here from Sumatra every so often since last year but in my area we dont feel it - those in high rise buildings nearer the coastline have felt them & had to rush down to ground level on several occasions last year .

That BG Lily Kate is sweet !

Hope you're better today !

Lovely card, Paula. Those papers are gorgeous.

I'm glad the migraine has eased. You have my sympathy ... I had one last week too. It totally floored me!

I couldn't believe it when I heard about the earthquake this morning. Scary, eh!

Sorry to hear about the migraine. I suffered terribly for years with migraines two or three times a week. I'm on daily tablets now which control them, but empathise with how they make you feel.

Great card as always, I admire your work greatly.

We weren't affected by the earthquake here in Devon, but have heard all about it on the news and on forums. Must have been a strange and somewhat scary experience.
