Home Recovering!

Well I have been home trying to get over a bout of Labyrinthitis for the past 3 weeks or so and this is the first time I have been able to sit at the computer long enough to type something without getting utterly giddy and feeling ill.  Just for the record this is my third bout in 3 years and although it's getting way less severe each time it's also getting just plain RIDICULOUS too!

Right, now that I have that out of my system I can share a few postcards I made right before getting ill.  Sadly I haven't been able to do much at present other than read a bit and watch a movie or two but hopefully that will change soon.

 
I am desperate for a stamp set that enables you to make postcards but whilst I wait for one to be designed I improvised and came up with something of my own using a black pen and some WMS stamps.

 
I added pen lines and dots to the front and scripture verses so I could send these out as encouragement to others.

 
I hadn't bought any new Verve 'plain Jane's' for a while now so I treated myself to a few to cheer mke up and they came yesterday.

 
And when I ordered them Verve were having a sale so the small PJ stamps were on two dollars something so they didn't break the bank either which is always good.  I decided to add in a few others to the mix as well.  I have a 'praying for you' from PTI but I've never used it much.  This 'scribbled' one looks way better.
 
 
One of the things I've always loved about Verve as a company is that they always pop a little 'thanks you' freebie into your order.  How cool is that?

 
In this case it was a 'birthday wishes' sentiment stamp which I can always use but I just think it's a lovely thing to do.
 
Hopefully I'll be playing with these real soon but not just yet.  For now that's as much typing as I can stand cos I can feel myself getting super giddy.  If I don't stop now I'll be falling all over the place when I get up off my chair!
 
At least now you know why I'm AWOL huh?
 
Enjoy
