Hello Friends! Hope you're all doing very well! This is something that I've gotten ready prior to surgery.
I've been doing very well since surgery! I am still not able to do the "normal" things .. I can't lift my arms, reach out, carry anything .. but thank goodness I am able to at least type on my laptop which my sweet hubby helps put on my lap. hehe! I can't wait to get back to doing things like .. hugging and cuddling my little boy, showering (phewee! lol!), cooking, crafting, and yes ... believe it or not .. cleaning too! I know in due time I will be able to do those things .. I just really miss it right now.
But I do have some WONDERFUL news to share with all of you! My surgeon informed me that my pathology report came back clean!!! All of the 8 lymph nodes that they removed showed NO cancer cells!!! Woot woot! My doctor told me that they were all so very pleased at how well I responded to chemotherapy! Yayyy!

Okay, so remember I purchased some distress re-inkers during Thanksgiving? Well, I finally played with them prior to surgery! I think I may be in love with Distress Inks! lol!
Here she is!!!
I know I still have a lot of learning to do with those distress inks .. but that's the fun part of it eh?! ;)
Thanks SO much to ALL of you! Your supportive comments, beautiful emails and encouraging words .. they give me so much happiness! You have all warmed my heart and I can't thank you enough!!
Love and Warm Hugs,
Elise

Your cards is wonderful!! Isn't it fun with the distress inks? I was on a course with Maya Stenshagen this weekend. Had great fun - she is so good at colouring!! I will publish later, from the scrap event weekend. I made 8 paper projects during the two days. Had a great time socializing with other hobby enthusiasts!
Have a great week!!!!
