Hello, lovely friends. First of all, I want to thank all of you for your concern for LuLu and for my family while she, hopefully, recovers from her stroke caused by the fibrocartilaginous embolism. It has been a trying time and this emotional roller coaster is a crazy ride.
I haven't had time to make cards, but I do have some card photos sitting here on the blog and ready to share. Hey, I can sit with LuLu and do that at the same time, and the diversion helps keep my mind in a better place. Besides, it's hard to feel down when looking at this:
These darling little hamsters are from the MFT Picture Perfect set, colored with Copics, and designed on a 4 3/4" square card. All ingredients are listed below. It was definitely a fun card to make.
By the way, I need to finish the switch from my Google (Feedburner) email service to the new follow.it service. I loved the way the blog emails looked up to this point, but I'm not sure if I have the new service set up right for all of you. So, please, if you get this email (possibly twice) I would love to know what the follow.it email looks like on your end. Are you getting a full post with photos, or is it just a title that you have to click on to visit the blog? Thank you so much for your help. Have a beautiful day!

Hello Leslie: Well, let me tell you that this post came to me in the usual, fabulous way, pictures and all so, the "follow.it" is working fine.
ReplyDeleteThese little hamsters are adorable and I love how you made this look like a Polaroid picture, so darn cute.
Now, how is your sweet Lulu doing? I'm anxious to know if the medication and therapy are working, I'm praying she will make a full recovery.
Give her a big hug from me.
Sending love, my friend.
Stay healthy and safe.

ReplyDeleteI got this email with the full post and I believe it came through Feedburner. It seems that when I get notification through Follow.it it's just a title. Maybe I need to subscribe again.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm glad Lulu is holding her own and you can spend lots of time with her. Your hamsters are adorable and you're making me want to order this adorable set! Thanks for the inspiration and enabling, my friend!
