I have beat our artist into submission at Just Inklined and nailed him down to drawing something for the ladies, after the popular demand of Charlotte and Abigail I knew that I wanted more. Jim cried in the corner for a while until I told him after he gave me what I wanted I would grant his wish to drawing something of his choice (Halloween, he has a naughty side)
So if you loved these.
Charlotte and Abigail digital stamps
Then the Elizabeth digital stamp will just blow you away.
I’m now in countdown stage for my holidays and would you believe my back is worse than ever, the spasm in the scan on Monday has sent it into melt down mode.
I’m taking heat patches to the Dominican Republic how crazy is that?
I have a few posts scheduled in ready so I won’t leave you high and dry and I will try to do a post or two from my holidays. I’m super busy today at work, tidying all the loose ends up with it being my last day for 3 whole weeks.
I’m going to show you some pages that I made of Kevin Renz my gorgeous friend Katie's husband from his last road trip, Man It looks good.
I love this one with the ice road cutting through the hills in the background.
Arriving at Alaska
I think if I came across this character I’d for run to the hills.
Then back home to the boys and a trip to the beach.
I think there is just something special about little boys in sailor suits, Grandson Jack had a sailor type Christening gown and he looked as cute as cute can be.
This is one of the Sailor Boys from a set of three from Mo’s Digital Pencil I think it’s one of my favourite all time of Mo’s sets.
I found a little yacht charm in my stash to compliment the image. Ribbon Carousel 5/8" Solid Color Plaid Ribbon
Also Gems from Mei Flower
This is the rest of the set, it is totally a must have.
Well Contrary to belief I'm not attracting metal objects, so far so good as in nothing has stuck to me.
The MRI scan is now complete, not the worst thing I've had done but also not the nicest. I was in around 45 minutes not the 30 that the letter said. I had big problems lying down on my back but the nice nurse stuffed some wedges under my knees to relieve the pressure on my back.
I was also given some funky earplugs to wear, I couldn't keep them in but I needn't of worried because they sandwiched my head with foam pads to stop it moving.
So in the machine I went, it was quite a snug fit and that was ok as I'm not claustrophobic. I was very pleased of the padding when the machine started jeeps it is so noisey.
There was no fear of snoring thankfully and the nice nurse would let me know each time it was going to start through a speaker that was with in the machine.
Half way through things started to hurt, laying rigid just wasn't easy when you are in pain and need to ease it. Then things started to spasm and get very unbearable and just when I thought I was going to have to scream at them to stop instead of the pitiful whimpering that I was doing, the nice nurse told me it was all done "yay".
So they eased me back into the open room and that's when I realised that I couldn't get up, what a wus, my back had seized, eventually after a bit of coaxing and a few yelps I got onto my feet.
So that's it all done thank goodness, I hope I get the results soon.
Just thought you would like the update.
I have my MRI scan today, apparently you have to make sure that all jewellery is removed, no metal zippers allowed because it is a magnetic scan, so I started to ponder about the glitter in my nail varnish, I had visions of my being stuck inside the scanner hanging in there by my fingernails.
So all that said, I’m going bare, no nail varnish and apparently no make- up, even mascara is banned, no underwired bra eeeek, I’m hoping that I have no glitter from card making attached anywhere on my body.
If you don’t here from me by 8pm tonight please send out the cavalry to come and free me.
I do have one more concern, the scan lasts 30 minutes during which time you are lay horizontal, due to my lack of good nights sleep it may be that I fall asleep during this, I guess laying on my back I could end up snoring like a gissy pig…. oh the shame of it. Chris is coming along for moral support and I can see him retiring to the car in shame.
