My Card for Tia

Sorry my post is late today. Yesterday at work I started to not feel well and it started with my ears being plugged for a couple of days. After lunch, I felt nausea (yuck!) and then felt woozy - I felt dizzy. All I could think of was that I was getting symptoms of vertigo. I felt much better today when I woke up but still not 100% so I went to the doctor. He said I didn't have an ear infection, but it was some form of vertigo called BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO. You can read about it HERE. Interesting because I'm sure we all have suffered from it at one time or another and if you haven't, you are lucky! It is a really common thing! Anyway, I wanted to make sure that Tia received my card before I posted it and ruin the surprise. I wish I could make a double shaker for everyone that I get partnered with, but it just depends. Some months I have more time than others. Anyway, here is the card that I made. Don't you just love these cute images?? They are called Pure Innocence and they are digi stamp characters created by a gal named Heather (United Kingdom). I ordered them through her etsy store. I had to buy them all! There are 7 girl images. Cute huh! I used one of my precious crochet flowers that Elena hand crocheted. I was one of the lucky recipients of some! (Thanks again, Elena!). Here's a close up...
The DP for the outer box is from Cute Stuff as well as the micro beads. The inside DP is from SU (retired). Green combo dew drops are from Tamikos. Sentiment is from SU as well as the scallop oval and oval punches. Bling from J's. Speaking of J's...they are having a make and take tomorrow, Saturday, July 25 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. They will be making a Sizzix peek-a-boo box! How fun!
Thanks for coming by today, and Happy Aloha Friday!! See you tomorrow!

Get better soon! Funny that you mentioned the crochet flower cuz that's what I saw first on your shaker card. Those flowers are so pretty that it's hard to use them.

Hi Teri, I love your card - what a cute little girl. You're only the third person I have heard of who has had BPPV. When you get an 'attack' for want of a better word, you feel so worried don't you, but the cure - 'the Epley Manoeuvre' is so easy - it's the easiest cure from a medical problem that I know of, and in my case it was instantaneous. And the good thing is that you can do it your self. All the best Teri. Hope you are feeling better now.

Awe so cute, this shaker card is adorable & the colors are beautiful!

I had something like that happen to me 2 months ago...man I hated that feeling the room just kept spinning out of contol. I had to spend most of the day in bed & next day I was fine. Knock on wood it has not happened since.
