Well, the countdown is on! Less than a week now, until my surgery. I am so looking forward to the new me....with the new hip. It's amazing, all the things we do that we take for granted.....until we can't do them anymore. I'm so looking forward to ditching the cane and the pain meds.
Today, I've gone with a Thank You card, using an image from Sweet Pea stamps, titled Raindragon. He sure looks happy, walking in the rain....which would be a pleasant change from the heat and humidity that we are experiencing right now.
Something a little different on this one. The paper at the bottom of the card is cut in strips and attached with a layer of double faced tape. Then I've sprinkled glitter, which of course sticks to the tape showing between the layers. This creates a kind of watery look....as of course it's raining.
Thanks for stopping by....and try to stay cool.
Some challenges for my card:

ReplyDeleteYour card is so much fun, I love the image you have chosen and combined so beautifully with the die cuts, backing paper and that gorgeous bow. The best of luck with your surgery, I know exactly what you mean when you say we take things for granted until something goes wrong as I've had problems with my back and sometimes it's unbelievable how much pain the human body can create. I wish you a speedy recovery so you can feel like yourself again!
