One last card before I go to the hospital

I'm telling you, ladies, stamping has saved me from becoming overly anxious about tomorrow's surgery. Well, that, and the prayers people are saying for me and all the positive thoughts coming my way. I really can't thank you all enough because I can honestly say that I'm relatively calm, with only moments of anxiety here and there, which is perfectly normal, I'm sure. However, once this post is complete, I'm laying down my markers, stamps and papers because I've got laundry to do and a bag to pack. As of tomorrow Thursday, my wonderful husband will be posting here for me to let you know how I'm doing. The easy part is the surgery, the hard part will be the physiotherapy, but everyone, without exception, has said it will be well worth it. I'm hanging on to that. So, here's my card for today. It was made following a tutorial by Charmaine at Oodabug Alley, but it's really a card that will be entered into the Blog Contest posted by Shannon at Live, Love, Laugh and STAMP. The colours that are required are Tempting Turquoise, Almost Amethyst and Black. I hope I win because I love those Riley moose stamps. C'mon, Shannon, take pity on a poor, old woman who won't be able to walk for a couple of months. Just kidding, I'll be in line with everybody else for the prize.

This is Barb, signing out until somewhere around March 4th, but please drop by to see what John has to say. Leave him a comment to encourage him to do it again and again. He'll get to love blogging as much as I do.
