Lovin' Hearts

Hello Hello!

It's been a very long minute since I've been creating and blogging.  I managed a few in December but getting sick at Thanksgiving slowed me down more than I wanted. Then Christmas came too fast and I'm still trying to get my footing again.  

The whole year of 2024 was a challenging year for the Salkelds, mostly healthwise and mostly for the Hubs.  We both got Covid (first time for me) and then he had elbow surgery that took a good six months to heal. And now he is dealing with a messed up shoulder from the job (ER nurse) on Christmas Eve.  Thankfully, no surgery needed and workers comp pays for this one.  Just hope he recovers quickly now.  A good thing, he is switching hospitals in February.  Same hospital system, but smaller hospital with less stress.  We both are looking forward to that and hoping less health issues this year for both of us.


At any rate, I've finally messed around in my craft room, got a little creative mojo flowing and actually finished a couple cards!  Here is one of them ----





I may not have been creating but that doesn't mean I haven't been shopping. HAHAHA The cover plate and Love word die are new. I got some nice goodies for Christmas and I may have hit a couple year-end sales as well.  The Hubs knows, it's dangerous when my mojo is low for creating - it means more happy mail for me.  LOL

I got my inspiration for the Inspired By Challenge this week and just squeaking in hopefully. 







Card Supplies:  

Stamps: Patterned heart (Catherine Pooler); Be Mine and Hug me stamps (Recollections).
Paper: Neenah 110# Solar White.
Ink: Cotton Candy, Pucker Up, Garden Party, Cummerbund, Something Blue (Catherine Pooler Inks).
Extras: Love word die (Simon Says Stamp); Heart cover plate (Honey Bee Stamps).


Thank you for stopping by and I hope you come back soon!
