This is a self portait card. When I seen this stamp, I had to have it. It symbolizes me and the way I chose to live. About 1 year ago I quite watching the news, all news! My heart and head just canÂ’t take it!!!! So this is me the Ostrich. Happy to have my head in the sand.

GORGEOUS card! Love your colouring. P.S. You're not alone, I avoid the news too. I find I can read but not watch it. It is too sensationalistic and the violence is so upsetting. I feel like many news shows are voyeuristic with people's suffering.

Beautiful, beautiful card. I ditto your comments and those above about the news. I too find it too disturbing and certainly not fit to watch the traditional 6:00 broadcast with young children in the house - it's not even fit for adults!!
