It's My Birthday!

Tha's right it's my birthday and I'm getting spoiled. My wonderful hubby gave me Copics! The 36B set. And yes, I've already been playing with them. It's so nice to have a hubby who supports my habit.

My sister in Ohio sent me flowers. A beautiful spring bouquet with tulips,roses,iris, snap dragons and some other flowers that I can't remember the names of. Attached to them are two balloons, a birthday one and a get well one.

And yesterday I received a gorgeous card my friend Deby made me with a couple of images tucked inside. I don't have pictures to share since I'm laid up with the foot.

Well, Time to play a bit more.
Blessings!

Home resting,some cards, and a big SCORE!

Hi All,
Just want to drop a note to let you know that surgery went well this morning and say thanks for the prayers. So I'm on the couch with the foot up being spoiled by my hubby. He's been upstairs working and every 20 minutes he comes down for ice detail, putting ice on my foot, taking it off, and making sure I have everything I need. Have I mentioned how much I love him?

Oh yeah, my big score...... One of my coworkers brought in 2 paper boxes to work the other day filled with stamps and stuff. His neighbor had a yard sale last weekend and had some stuff left over. I got 21 stamps, including 2 house mouse, 1 bottle of liquid applique still in it's package, and 13 containers of flocking, embossing powders,glitters and other cool textured mediums. Now here's what makes the score big. Most of the containers were full or slightly used and I got it all for $25! What a blessing!

So, here are a couple of cards that I made last week. Both cards have 120lb luxery white card base from Gina K, The sentiments are from PTI's Handwritten Notes, (Ijust love this set), and the papers and embellishments are SU. I also used one of the new flat edge punches from EK Success.

Have a great evening!

Blessings!

Prayers appreciated

Good Morning All,
As I sit here soaking my foot in betadine and water, I thought I'd drop a quick note. We're headed up to the city in about 20 minutes where I will be having foot surgey. It's out patient surgery, so I'll be back home on my comfy couch this afternoon in a drug stupor :-). I would appreciate any prayers that come my way as I'll be laid up fpr a few weeks and on crutches for 6 weeks.

But there's good news in this......besides the obvious that I will not be in any more pain, I'll have all sorts of time to create.

Blessings!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHUCK!

How do you drive a bunch of engineers nuts? Make something where nothing is lined up, a bit off kilter. That's what I did with this card. I work with a bunch of engineers, and tomorrow we're celebrating one of their birthdays. I purposely made the image crooked and the brads not line up. It will drive them insane! Chuck, the birthday boy, is a great guy! I have learned so much about our work from him. He definitely knows his stuff.
This one is just because. I really like this stamp set from Gina K. Flowers for Daisy was designed by Asela Hopkins. The sentiment comes from PTI's Handwritten Notes.

This card features SU image, Springtime something or another. (Leave it to me not to remember). and PTI ribbon and dp. I colored the image with SU markers.

So that's all for tonight.

Blessings!
