Guess what I got to do yesterday? Something fun and relaxing..........a massage! A two hour massage................hello!!! It was fabulous by all means imaginable. I highly suggest you try it!!!
I have a membership at Massage Envy which is a pre-paid monthly massage club. My sister-in-law told me about it when I was living in Arizona last year & after one visit I signed up. Massage Envy has locations around the country and I have been lucky enough to have ones near my house here in Seattle & Phoenix. This summer I was going to the chiropractor a couple times a week for problems with my back. Well, I hadn't had an appointment for an adjustment since July and my back problems returned with a vengeance last week. Well, that's what I get for being a bad girl and not going in for occasional adjustment. But, I 'm sure you know how it is you start feeling better and you just start playing less attention to the issue. And then here you are right back at square one!
Tomorrow is our Homecoming game against the Oregon State Beavers. Wouldn't it be nice if we could get our first win for all the alumni coming back to the game? Well, a girl can dream and be optimistic!!!!! I just hope our players and coaches hang in there and keep plugging away at the allusive goal. A victory!!! Maybe I should do one of my high school cheers-V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!!
Any how, despite my back issues and sore throat I was able to make these cards. I think I hear Reindeer on my roof............(lol)!!!!
This card was made from American Crafts papers that I had in my stash. Ribbon is Midori, and the branch & ornament stamps are from Impress Rubber Stamps. Both stamped images are embossed with clear embossing powder.
The supplies used for this card are American Crafts Paper, Midori Ribbon, Coaster is from Impress Rubber Stamps, and the stamp is Inkadinkado.
You can see I love this paper. Stamp is from Art Warehouse that I purchased years ago. Die-cut is Making Memories and the ink is Stazon Red. I used Too Much Fun Red Flock on the stamped image.
And lastly.....
New papers from Basic Grey Holiday Collection-Wassail. Ribbon-Midori, Owl stamp from Hero Arts, & "Rejoice" stamp from Inkadinkado. I used Brilliance Coffee Bean ink for the owl and sentiment. The stamps are embossed with clear embossing powder.
Off to bed now............I have a game to go to tomorrow! Good thing its at 4:00 p.m. PST. I guess I get to sleep in.........good night!
