Think I'm going to do some stitching today.  I'm rather tired of sitting around reading, so going to try and get something accomplished while I'm sitting so much 😃

Have a great day!

Saturday quote........

No plans for today.  The Dr said I was walking on my foot too much.....dang!  So, now I have a little knee scooter and I'm supposed to stay off my foot!  Frustrating!    Trying my best, but it is hard!    I find I get up and down too much when I'm stamping, so I guess I will try to get some wool applique projects finished!

Enjoy your day!

The card - background is patterned paper.  I added a bit of grunge to to the background.  I love this new sentiment set that my friend gave me for my birthday - so much fun!  The larger 'thanks' is stamped directly on the patterned paper and then I stamped the smaller 'thanks' on top in a different color.  

Need to hobble around and get a few chores done this morning.  Looking forward to an afternoon of knitting/handwork with friends..  Then I have class tonight.  

Have a great day!

The card - background is patterned paper.  Flowers (SU) are stamped in black and  then colored just a bit with stampin blends.

Well, got my new 'shoe' yesterday.  Turned out a bit better than I thought.  No 'boot' just a 'shoe' and no crutches.  (Yay!)   Supposed to stay off it as much as possible, but can get around the house and get out a bit.  Only for 3 - 6 weeks instead of 6 - 8 weeks - that was definitely good news.  Still will be doing a lot of sitting, so hoping to get a lot of projects done!!!

AND.....it's birthday month - woo hoo!  First birthday dinner tonight!  Fun times ahead!   

Have a terrific day!
