Hi Everyone...it's good news this morning...fingers crossed but this old goat seems to have turned the corner and is heading down the road to recovery but I'm taking a rain check on today's lunch outing with the Friday Girls until I'm certain those nasty bugs have well and truly vacated the old tum. Instead it's going to be a back to cubbyhole for a Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous inky session kind of a day and while we're on the subject of old goats...here's a card I made with the adorable old goat from the Hipster stamp set...a cool laid-back dude if ever I saw one...meet GEOFFREY...
I used the Scribbles stencil from Set 24 for the card background and the Scribbles and Spirals Stamp Set for the background of the cork-backed Thinlits Stitched Rectangle
along with the Wildflowers Thinlits...
and ONE thing's for sure...this old goat...yes we're talking about me again...is so thankful for wonderful/caring and generous friends...my Friday Girl mates who popped in yesterday with get well soon yummy chicken soup and Tim...my adorable Professor and Mario...my favourite BTS Man/Kitter Extraordinaire and Expert Parcel Packer who very kindly sent me this absolutely amazing... "eyes out on stalks"..."kid in a sweetie shop" "lost for words" so so generous parcel of Idea-ology goodies and I nearly fainted when I spotted the Distress Oxide Ink Pads...
words can't express how truly blessed I am to have you all in my life and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. And before I go all emotional on you...I'm off to the cubbyhole for a crafting catch-up day with a Cheeky Chimp who goes by the name of CHARLIE and get a few DT projects under my belt because I'm off on a jolly jaunt next weekend. Have a great weekend everyone and I'll be back on Monday with my DT project for
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.
