catching up

Thank you so much for the loving and caring comments and emails.  You have made me feel connected even though I've been unplugged for a while.  It's been a blurry few weeks and I am feeling so much better.  Thank you, truly.

My pages from yesterday fall into the *evidence* category.  Lots of messages that came in cards, with gifts, a fruit basket, fresh flower bouquets, and LOTS of ROSES!   How about this message from Lisa…made me grin, and it's so true 😉

I put in some time on my other blog today too.  Crusade No. 38 is posted.  A super easy and fun way to layer on a page is to use tissue paper….even cooler if it's painted.  Go see, then play along with us.

Journaling reads:  I think being and feeling lucky is entirely on your attitude and perspective.  I am a lucky girl.

    Hope you’re on the mend Michelle. Hospitals aren’t the nicest place to be. Love the tissue page.

    So happy to see you feeling well enough to post! The WWW is a lonely place without you!

    …and how appropriate with St. Patty’s Day so close. Luck? Not sure… you’re destined for so much more greatness in this lifetime my sweet Michelle, I’m elated that you’re feeling more like yourself…. BUT… take it easy and don’t get back into your daily grind to fast… xoxo

    Michelle-
    I am so glad you are feeling better! I was beginning to worry. Glad you are back, but I agree with Jennifer…don’t overdo!
    Sending love!
    Until later,

    Even being sick gives you an idea for journal pages! And the new crusade sounds like fun. Love your shamrock.

    Jumping for joy that our Girl is back in business. Even in a cloudy haze your creative mind is clicking away. This calls for a celebration.

    So glad you’re feeling better! I’ve been thinking about an XOXO-page but even though some pages are love-related didn’t post for Feb crusade. Will join this one, for sure, tissue papers are so fun. I just made a tutorial on paper cloth made from tissue paper so I’m already in the mood for thin beautiful paper play! 🙂

    SO glad that you are feeling better and your creative juices are flowing again! I <3 this page! Me and you are of the same mind, because today my friend gave me a manicure in class (gotta love beauty school) and I opted for two green shades! I’m counting down the days until St. Pats!
    Take care of yourself Love! Don’t over-do it!

    Beautiful pages as ever, but sure hope we never have to see some of that evidence like a plastic hospital bracelet again. I adore that 4 leaf clover page! Take good care and take it slow! oxox

    Hello Michelle,
    it has been a BAD kidneystone since you need to go to the hospital !
    Good to read you’re better now 🙂
    The yellow /pink/red/ orange colors on your pagespread do reflect your happiness about it.
    Clover page is great, again…. I wish I could see you busy working on your pages.
    Never thought about taking video while you’re working? It doesn’t have to be a real tutorial : just focussing on your hands and what they do…
    greetings from belgium

    Isn’t it interesting that a cross “+” is actually just an “X” tipped over on it’s side? Maybe it’s what the letter X looks like when it’s laid up for a bit. Very glad you are back, but hope you take it slow and steady. Happy creations from tj in germany

    Thanks everyone for your comments. TJ: check out this post. I had an a-ha moment when I finally connected the + with the x.

    Michelle,
    Thanks for your kind reply. Love you love of dirt too. I too have the same love. Now that I have a new source to get Irish dirt, having Irish in my blood, I can have the dirt delivered without taking the long trip to Ireland. But, one day I will, when I am able.
    Hope you are feeling better each day. You made me feel a bit better, as my day started out with quite a struggle.
    Warmly with Hugs,
    Karla
