On the Sofa....

Hello everyone! Sorry I've been MIA but I've been down with a cold and pretty much just on the sofa in my pjs for  the last 6 days. Ugh...don't ya hate feeling like crap? But one good thing, I got a lot of pleasure reading done. I'm a vamp fan ya know and I read 4 books on my Kindle (thanks again Dena!) that I lovveeeddd! Vegas Vampire Series by Erin McCarthy. This was the first time in a LONG time when I actually laughed out loud reading. This gal has got a great sense of humor and when you're feeling the depths of your pity party cause you feel like crap, laughing out loud feels pretty darned good.  LOL
Dave is still doing well after that scary bout of amnesia!! His CAT Scan and MRI came out great but they still want to do the carotid artery and heart sonograms but hasn't been able to  schedule those yet. He still can't remember everything but that's OK. He remembers my name so I'm good. LOL
So in honor of another darned gloomy day in Columbus, Ohio, I thought I would bring out some sunshine of my own. Ah..hold on....wait....can it be?.....OMG I spoke too soon, I am seeing the clouds parting and wait..what is that....it's the SUN!!! Holy Macaroni! The sun is shining!! For a minute there I thought Jesus was parting the sky and He was comin for me!!
Ok control myself Erika.
So this card was mades using PTI Raspberry Fizz,Aqua Mist and 4 squares of March Color Coutoure designed by Dawn McVey.I punched out a large green scallop circle and added clear rhinestones then a yellow circle on top of that and using my PTI Beautiful Blooms II #1 Die cut out the raspberry fizz flower. I LOVE the artisan element in the center by Melissa Frances. Seam binding is from thisgoodday on Etsy. Andddd, that yeller crochets flower I made with my very own hands.The tiny plastic blue flower is from Speckled Egg.
Hope this card cheers you up..it sure did me. Have a great day!
Erika
