Get Well cards again...

So this is the last post sharing my beautiful "Get Well card bomb" creations.... unless this week goes like the first week as I got cards in the mail every day bar the one... special!

And I have 2 stunners for you today... though neither fit easily into my grouped themes!
First up a stunning Waterfront A6 Pop & Twist card from the lovely Pat Bruce... using my favourite Waterfront stamps and my favourite Soft Sea Foam and Pool Party colours...which - when teamed with the Very Vanilla - make for such a subtle and calming but absolutely beautiful colour combination....
And secondly... this stunning Tin Tile Impossible Card from the wonderful Sarah Lavelle... such a WOW!! Another embossing folder on my next order then!!!
Check out my Tutorial here for this card... 

And lastly... I have to admit that these wonderful Get Well creations have cost me quite a lot of money!!! I think there are at least 4 or 5 products that are now on my List to Must Buy!

More Get Well Wishes... the yellows and the oranges...

So my "card bomb" is continuing... in fact I am lucky enough to have received beautiful handmade cards in the post every day except one this last week...

And I can't tell you how special that makes me feel... knowing that so many people "have my back" and are sending me their thoughts and wishes in the way we crafters know best! #makeacard #sendacard

And I like to think that all these positive vibes are helping me feel absolutely fine through this treatment so far... so again... thank you all...

So today I am sharing the cards featuring the yellows and the oranges... and I have included some cards from my own Craft Therapists team members as well as customers too... and you could say that there is a bit of a butterfly theme amongst these too...

So... as always... in no particular order...

The beautiful Springtime Impressions card by the lovely Kate Cooper...
The pretty Watercolor Wishes card by the lovely Cheryl Sanderson...
The Hello Hello card by the wonderful Caroline Merrick... and (bizarrely) I actually found my Hello Hello stamp minutes before I opened this card!
 The Brusho Butterfly Window card by the equally wonderful Battee....
And last but not least... the host of beautiful butterflies card by the lovely Jill B... 

In fact actually first... as this was the first card I was sent... in fact the first Thinking of You card that I have ever received!

Get Well Dandelion Wishes.. for me...

One of the lovely things about being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is that you know a lot of lovely people... who are very talented... and who love to send a beautiful hand made card to wish you well...
when you most need it...

As I have said a few times this week... never ever underestimate the power of a card in the post... especially a beautiful handmade one... or lots!
So ... I am going to share the talents of some of these wonderful ladies with you... today and probably for a few days... as I got...(and am still getting) "card bombed!" by my fellow Stampin Up team mates... 

So... in no particular order... first up are a couple of beautiful cards using our Annual Catalogue favourite, Dandelion Wishes...
A beautiful Balmy Blue & Silver embossed Large Square Easel card by the lovely Anne Williams...
And a stunning Mint Macaron and Very Vanilla A6 card by Suzi Jepson...
Again... thank you ladies... even if you did all make me shed a tear!!! 

So I can hear some of you asking "why?"... and I will just keep it very matter of fact! So I started CURATIVE Radiotherapy treatment for Lymphoma on Monday just gone... I am now 1/3rd of the way through the treatment... and I am feeling absolutely fine... as I can't even feel the treatment happening...  And I am even spending some days having a lovely social time catching up with my friends/taxis to the hospital and back... as they give hubby a break from that daily chore... 

And I have to admit that I am just SO glad to be at this stage... as it has been a long time coming! So please excuse me for my blogging efforts not being quite the same for the last 6 months... well now you know why... and I will be back to normal transmissions very soon... 

So all is good... and ALL will be good... though I guess I may be a bit "tired" at this years On Stage... but I will have a good excuse!
