Hello
again,
Well the
hot summer temps are set to plummet today 30C tomorrow 17C almost a fifty
percent drop, no more sleeping with frozen hot (should that be cold)water bottles 😄 and I have been enjoying the overcast days bringing
some relief from the heat and it allowed me to get to my craft space and have a
play with some of my goodies that arrived late last year before Christmas.
My aim for
making 4-5 Christmas cards has gone out the window, here I am with one day left
of January and I have made just one, maybe I’ll catch up next month post-surgery
while I take things easy, or not. I have made enough progress for my Bondi
Physio to send me off to see a local physio for yoga/pilates stretches and
treatment- which will begin in April as she is a popular physio. I can now last 15mins on my feet before I start feeling ill, only
issue is as my Physio has untwisted my muscles other problems have been stirred up,
meaning my stamping/colouring ability has shortened😞 my arm gets tired and I turn
white in the face. Progress is progress and slow and steady is working well.
Small steps everyday. Whinging over. 😊
I made a
5x7” card using a mix of papers and scraps from my stash, I had thought of this
card when I ordered the semi circle and reindeer dies from AliExpress last
year, it turned out a little darker than I planned on, not being able to find
the paler woodgrain paper I wanted to use. Quite a masculine card, I think it would look great using some tartan paper too...
