rs #78 ~ Bee Well!

Hi  bloggy friends! I hope everyone had a good weekend. Ours wasn't too bad other than the weirdness associated with a tetnas shot I received on Thursday. Just a routine booster, I hadn't had one for years. They said my arm would be sore for a few days. Okay, no big deal. But I woke up on Saturday with a very sore arm. Not so much where I was given the shot, but under my arm along with some swelling.. As the day went on I just felt icky. The shot seemed to have affected my lymph nodes. I had some other places in my body that were a little inflamed and tender. Sunday I was just kind of wiped out. Things are getting a little better today, but I'm not feeling quite up to par. Strange isn't it. Those preventative measures aren't always what they're cracked up to be. The first flu shot I ever got left me sick with one thing after the other that whole winter. Who knew! But enough of that huh, how about a card. I turned to the latest Retro Sketch to get a little something done today. Cute and simple, kind of a get well to myself!!

I've had this whimsical border stamp from the Rubber Cottage for quite some time. I masked off the edges of the card base and stamped the border top to bottom using alternating Harvest Gold & Summer Sunrise inks.  Next I die cut and stamped a PTI fillable frame. The sentiment inside is by DRS. Years ago my hubby brought me home a little strip of reflective tape he had left over from work. He thought maybe I could do something with it ~ my sweet guy! It reminded me of honeycomb. So I use it along with this PSX bee. Fun huh! To add just a touch of umph to the background, I stamped some random dots using a Judith stick stamp.

Well I think that does it for me today. I'm going to drag myself to the grocery store LOL!! Have a great day friends and thanks for popping in! ~Lisa
