I know, you have all probably seen this image tons of times on here, but I need to take some photos of new cards..so this is the one you get..hehe.
This is how I feel every morning when I get up. Two cups to get moving and then another cup in the afternoon to stay awake...its sad really.
Pretty easy card to put together...stamped the card with some coffee beans and coffee words. Colored my image, which is Rubber Romance with my Prismacolor markers...layered her on some blue cardstock and that's it. The sentiment I got from Archivers on one of my many visits to that store. Sometimes I think I keep that place in business...sshhh..dont tell my husband that one.
Today was another hot day. I actually got in my pool and layed on my float for awhile baking my skin...I know, not funny. It was nice to just relax out in the sun, even though I was sweating big time.
Therapy is going well and I only have one more visit..unless when I see my surgeon the first of July he says I have to go for more since I don't want my surgery until the fall...I figure why waste my summer being on crutches and not being able to do anything...no fun at all.
Guess that's it for now...hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I'm going camping, which is always fun.
Tata for now...............
I cannot take credit for this card...I CASE'd(copy and steal everything) the whole thing..from this post on Dawn's blog.
If for some reason the link doesn't work, let me know.
Anyway, I saw this card and absolutely loved it. Simple but pretty at the same time. And it was so easy to make. I love these quick cards.
Yesterday was therapy day, which was better this week than last. After last week, I could hardly walk the day after. I was thinking..."ok, I'm suppose to feel better, not worse after therapy" haha.
Today is treadmill day, which I need to get busy over here and do it. The more I put it off, the more I wont do it.
Guess that's about it for now....I have started to make some jewelry so I will have to take a picture to show you....its pretty fun and addicting. When will I have time to make new cards? Just joking.
More later...tata for now..........................
I have my 4th of July cards done, now all I need to do is send them out...you watch, I will probably forget..haha.
This card uses Quickutz dies that I found at Archivers. Each month they come out with more dies and I usually go buy a few that I like.
The background pattern of the card uses a stamp that I found at Hobby Lobby. I then used my stickles to add some little dots to sparkle it up a bit. Also used the stickles on the fire of the sparkler. The sentiment "the 4th of July" is from some clear stamps that I found in the dollar spot of Michaels.
Well, I have ripped my ACL..so that means surgery. Right now I'm going to physical therapy and then I will see my doctor the first part of July. I am going to see if its ok to hold off on my surgery until after Labor Day. I really don't want to be cooped up for my summer.
Which is why you wont always see a post every day...we go camping twice a month about 150 miles from here. Our family lives there and we love to go camp and hang out with the family. Its always lots of fun.
We also have our pool all set up and ready to go. The water is warm and I have been swimming in there already. The weather hasn't been all that great, so haven't been in as much as I would like. Swam in there today and even layed out a while.
I took a beading class over the weekend and I love it. I made some bracelets this evening and tomorrow I need to work on a few more. I don't want to forget what I learned. Hobby Lobby had a bunch of their jewelry 50 percent off, so I went there this morning and got a lot of goodies to make more jewelry.
Guess that's about it for now...hope you all had a wonderful weekend....tata for now....
I got this newest die cut from Archivers the other day when I went in to find the 4th of July dies that were out. I couldn't resist this fish. Wasn't sure what I was going to do with him or her, but I knew I wanted it.
I first stamped my background using TAC sets in my clear embossing ink pad and then put the stamp directly onto the colored ink pad...added clear embossing powder.
The letters are stickers. Put them onto a punched circle and mounted them with a pop dot. Added stickles to the fishes fins and added some diamond sparkle for the bubbles.
The sentiment is from a clear stamp set that I had bought at Michales in the dollar bin.
Well, the results from my MRI show that I ripped my ACL...I was actually shocked cause I in no way thought that it was that serious. Im going to physical therapy right now and then will have surgery to repair the ACL in the fall.
Thats it for now...tata............
Thought this one might make a nice birthday card for one of my girlfriends or maybe sister in laws..who knows. How cool would it be to open this up and find a spa certificate inside? I think I would love that!
I colored with Copics and Prismascolor markers. Paper is from TAC. Found a ribbon and flowers in my embellishments stash.
Sorry I haven't posted anything since the last of May..went to Omaha last weekend in May and have been busy ever since I got home. I don't think it ever ends.
Tomorrow I go see my doctor to find out the MRI results on my knee that I messed up in April. Yes, I have waited all this time to go see what is wrong with it....I just hate the thought of having knee surgery....hopefully it wont be too complicated. The doctor thought that maybe it was some cartilage damage, so we will see tomorrow.
That's it for now...I need to get busy and create some more cards for you all to see.
Tata for now...
