I've been stabbed....

I never thought Scrapping could be so dangerous! As usual I drop things all the time while scrapping. Usually if I drop and eyelet or a button, I try to catch it in my lap before it hits the floor and disappears under the furniture forever - well. I dropped my Fiskars scissors, and as a reaction tried to catch them. The handle hit my left thigh, and as I pulled my knees together I stabbed myself with the sharp point of the scissors. I have a hole in my leg about 5 mm wide - the width of the scissors. They went deep and sliced my pants. I should probably go to the hospital and have it glued (they do that here instead of stitching), but good ol' bandaids will have to do me. It hurts so much! What a ninkompoop! Right when I started a new layout too!


I've made the photo tiny, so I don't freak anyone out - probably get a phonecall from my mum!
I'm hobbling around, and will have to mend my jeans - they got sliced too!

This isn't the layout, but one I did finish today:

(Note: this post was actually written lastnight at 7.30pm - but the stupid internet played up and I couldn't post it - it's now Monday 18th, 9.22)

Oh my gosh, Sarah! Ouch! I kinda know how you feel the other day. I was using those really sharp Cutterbee scissors the other day to cut some ribbon and instead I cut my finger! It hurt for two days straight!

Adorable, Sarah... I love all the bubbles and how precious!!! So sorry you have been injured. Trust me ...I have had many crating accidents... I even ended up in the emergency room where I was cutting soap and the knife cut into my thumb it required 5 stitches and it looks like a frog frown now, lol! Hope you mend extra fast! Hugs from North Carolina, Dawn
