Ventral Hernia Surgery repair

I haven't been posting anything lately and haven't had much time to play with my new Cameo! On Thursday the 12th I had surgery. I had a large ventral hernia and a small hernia that needed to be repaired. The surgeon had to do it open, so I'm in a lot more pain then if they were to do it laproscopically. I'm just glad it's all over and I am at home recovering. Is very thankful for sick time and a very supportive husband. I hope to be back to normal in about a month or so. Although, it might be interesting to see how creative I can be with all this pain medicine I'm on...LOL!

38 Handmade Christmas Cards

2 posts in one day...

Finally getting around to posting my Christmas cards. Here's a picture of all 38 cards...I couldn't even tell you how long it took to make...LOL! I did change it a bit and added a white
snowflake instead of the flower.
The last couple of year's I've been inspired by all the cards they make at the Archiver's store here in Austin. Here's the one my husband and I picked to make this year...I just loved all the embossing!

Here's the link for the instruction's and supplies.

Action Wobble Birthday Card

It's been awhile since I've posted anything...I guess life and the holiday's got in the way. I made this card for my Grandmother-in-law's birthday back in December. I used very fun action wobbles on the presents and I was inspired by some cards I saw on splitcoaststampers. Here is my take on it...

By the way, Happy New Year!! Still hard to believe that it's 2012!

Supplies: Vagabond, Stampin Up! Cardstock, Stampin Up! Ink, decorative paper, ribbon, sizzix sizlit gift die, My Pink Stamper stamps, pearls, and stickles.
