"Paris in Springtime" Card...

Hi ladies, are we all on a chocolate hangover ;-) Made this card mostly with Prima and Pink Paislee; love how they combine so well together.

 And my new favorite shabby chic flowers are from Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/frogfeathers; excellent $; I cut them in half, glue the sides and pop out the middle, that way I have two medium size instead of one big one...she sells combo packs with 4 different colors.

"Life IS full of Beauty" Card

Happy Easter everyone, I used my new Pink Paislee Butterfly garden paper and ephemera on this card; I really love this new collection. My shoulder is slowly getting better, but I have to limit my time on the computer to this mostly. I really miss visiting and leaving some love to you all, but know that I am thinking of you....xooxoox

"Shabby meets vintage" card

Hi all, oh, how I miss creating, and visiting all my favorite blogs. Still having a lot of trouble with my shoulder, but it is getting better, and I just had to share this card I made for my darling niece....I have been resting for 3 weeks , so it felt so good to make this....

Health issues....

Hello all, I am sorry I have not been commenting on your posts, nor posting any of my own work. As you may or may not know, I have nerve damage in my neck, and I have now developed bursitis in my shoulder as well as carpal tunnel syndrome; my hands are very weak....I have been resting, taking anti-inflammatory medication, as well as natural therapies, but the problems are persisting....I am starting massage therapy next week , and will see how that goes....

If anyone has any suggestions, please share.

This is something I finished before these problems started, but never posted. I am  praying that I will be able to start crafting soon and leave some love for all of you and your beautiful creations. Please send healing energy my way...

"Flashback Friday Challenges"

Wow, check out how fun this is on Flashback Friday Challenges

" first card you have posted with a window cut into the front of the card"

So guess what ??? The very first post I ever wrote was for a window cut card. How weird and cool is that ? Below is the card and this is the  post . I can't get over how bizarre this is...

BUT, the very first window card I made, as a non-blogger, is this one, on March 15th of 2010. I remember selling it right away for $3 and was thrilled !!! It looks so naked and vulnerable. I had so little STUFF back then...Ok. here we go. I know EGO, this is hard for ya, but its the beauty of this challenge, so step aside.
