The Other Half

Hi there...

I've been racking my brains trying to come up with a card for hubby's birthday next week ... 
Being as he loves golf and football, the cards he usually gets tend to feature either one of these so I always do something different, and this is definitely different!

I decided to use the other half of the doll stamp that I used in my previous post


And I couldn't leave Ginger cat out could I? Lol! 


I just know he will love this card and it's not as boring as a golf card is it

 
Now if only I had legs as long and slim as that ...sigh

My crafting head is slowly coming together again, the problem is that I can't lift, stretch or bend and in my craft room not at lot is at eye level, but I'm getting there.

Enjoy your day 

Hugs

~ Ros ~

Nothing boring about that! I love how you put the cat in there too! Such a fun card, Ros!

Oh, my gosh, I laughed out loud at your ingenuity! Way to go, using the other half and coming up with such a perfect card for your husband's birthday! So fantastically cute! He'll love it, and, of course, you had to include Ginger cat. One might think that stamping is a sedentary activity, but it does involve a lot of lifting, stretching, and bending. Hang in there, Ros!

Oooo I bet he WILL love this. Definitely a departure from the sports theme. LOL I know you really want to get back to crafting but don't push yourself too hard. Healing is a long process and we don't want you going backwards. Hugs!

Ha, ha, or should I say, tee-hee! This is perfect for hubby, Ros! Ooh-la-la!! So sweet that you added Ginger cat! I'm so happy to hear that you are doing so well! I hope you have one of those "grabby" sticks for reaching places you can't reach! Hugs, Darnell

I just love how she's nudging the cat out of the way. Fantastic! Best wishes for your continued recovery Ros.

Oh Ros, this card is hilarious! I absolutely love it! You may not be able to move in all the ways you'd like to but it sure doesn't show when it comes to your creative output.
