FRIEND..

I  just love the Three  for you  Punch and I had to make another card  to showcase this  fabulous tool . I  used the  flower stamp that come in this  punch kit   But for the background  I use itty bitty backgrounds. I also used  vellum Cardstock  for the  background  and also on  the overlay on top of the flowers ( with a white gel pen dot in the center )  .. The Friend stamp  that was used  on the stem was also in this kit ..   Cardstock I used was Wild wasabi and  Groovy guava . I  made the grass  by cutting thin slits  into a piece of scrap card stock .

Yesterday I ended up getting a  cortisone shot in  2 of my  fingers and Really it didn't  hurt  Just burned for a  second when the  liquid was going in .. I really hope this helps with the swelling .. Mainly in my ring  finger so I can wear my  wedding ring again instead of around my neck on Rich's neckless ..  1st thing  Dr said when he seen me was   WOW You have lost alot of weight..   he laughed and  said  see  I noticed and I am a man ..  ( Update on weight loss this past Saturday  another 2 lbs gone  so I lost the 36 lbs total so far  )  I  am guessing this was  a comment  meant for his nurses  cause they all laughed . Today I go  see  Dr. Nicholas ( my knee surgeon )  for my 3 month follow up  . I'm excited to show  him How great my knee/s  are doing .  This should be the last visit to him  until next year I think . OH my goodness  girls we are   2 weeks away ( +a few hours ) until hubby is home .. Oh my  I can't believe it .. There is excitement in the air thats  for sure It so Funny   at  church / post office  everywhere  I go everyone asks me how many days ??

This weekend was another Great mail day I recieve Sandy Dayhoff's Cards for the troops  which  are sooo amazing . Thank you Sandy

I also recieved  Corinne's blog candy  I won .. Oh my  she is such a sweetie ..  she  sent the beautiful Frame  with all the goodies  But she also sent  name tags   for each of us  .. She worte the sweetest  note in her card  and  on  the back of the name tags  she  wrote  each of us  her favorite  Scripture .. Thank you  so Much Corinne .. Thanks for stopping by. I will see you tomorrow .

Until tomorrow  Happy Stampin!!
