February Girls

This looks to be the last kit of the month. Kit includes 12 full size papers and 30 elements, not all of which are shown in preview. Please note: if you are a registered member of Just Art you will find some duplication with the Color Pop_ Purple I shared with members. Lots of different stuff in this kit too. Hope you enjoy.

Update

Hi everyone, Hard to believe but this month is almost over! I have completed a February Girls kit for you but it will probably be tomorrow before I can post it. Here is a preview. Not everything shown on preview.

I also intend to do two things I hadn't originally planned on. I post mini- kits (often actually full kits) as part of my hosting duties for Just Art. These are often keyed to the color of the month challenge color. I happens that in January the color was red and this month it is purple. Both fit in with kits I was putting together for the birthday girls kits here. I plan to give you both of those mini kits since they tie in with our birthday girls series. Now you are going to find some duplication - may be even a lot of duplication with the kits I give you here but there are some differences. So you can decide it it is worhtwhile for you to download these and add to your birthday kit folder. Ideally, I would go through the mini kits and just pick out what would not be duplicates and give you the non-dups as an add-on but I just don't have time to do that right now. So download or not as you please. In addition, I wonder if you might be interested in some related wordart? Like meaning of the birthstones and birth flowers? Again, not happening right away. March is going to be very busy. I'm going out of state for several days to see my son and DIL. Might get snowed in. March holidays are st. Paddy's Day and Easter and I have 3 hosting duties on Just Art. For JA I need to set up challenges for Artist Trading Cards - 3 options plus examples, a mini kit, and a color pop. So digitally I'll be busy. Plus my husband will be having 2 cataract surgeries and I'll have follow-up related to the MRIs I have to go for on 2/25. Can't predict how all this will play out. However, I so enjoy digital art and find it a real solace in rough times so you can bet I'll be at the computer as much as possible. Then too, there is housework and as much as I lothe that, some is certainly necessary.

A new Winter kit

Last week was full of doctor appointments - mine and his. Since hubby's eyes are bad right now, I'm having to transport him around. Got his surgeries (cataracts) scheduled for after I return from visiting my son. Had trouble getting my MRIs scheduled. Seems the local hospitals are short handed for radiology. Won't be going until near the end of the month. On the other hand, my right sided pain seems to be slacking off. Hoping the MRIs will provide some answers on why I'm having these nerve issues. Also good, my dentist could find nothing wrong in the area (right side again) of my jaw where I've had pain. He spotted a tiny place on old filling that he will restore but x-rays showed no issue there so he thinks the occassional pain there is a nerve too. Today I will start giving you Kingdom of Frost.

It will soon be Valentine's Day!

It's been awhile since I've posted, I know. Have lingering effects from my fall weeks ago. Right now the most troubling one is increased neck pain and tingling down my right arm. Had a visit to ER about the knee and was told it was just a bad sprain (after x-ray) and it was wrapped up. That's fine. Had a CT of cervical spine and was referred to orthopaedics. Of course, it takes a while to get in. The doctor there following up on my ER visit took more x-rays and announced "Your neck looks terrible!" The spine isn't his area of expertise, so he referred me to a member of their spine team. Another appointment. We talked about the artritis and degenerating disks in my neck and he did a basic evaluation. In doing so he noticed my trouble with balance showing in a wobbly walk and asked if anyone had ever told me I have some weak reflexes in my legs (MO). 've had a balance problem for years, was told it was probably due to brain damage from auto accident as there was nothing wrong with my ears. Did vestibular therapy and can normally do fine unless I am ill or over-tired. But since fall, balance has been worse. He has ordered MRIs of my cervical and thoracic spine. My husband's cataracts suddenly became much worse. We spent 3 hours on Monday getting an evaluation and scheduling his surgery. The good thing is they will also be able to correct his asstigmatizim and his glaucoma. In between all this I had a breast cancer scare. Fibroid cysts aren't new to me but those usually show as round or oval on mammograms. Instead, they found an assymetrical growth in my right breast. Another mammogram plus an ultrasound was scheduled. Afterwards, the radiologist said she couldn't say for certain whether it is a cyst or something worse. Will go back in six months for another ultrasound and more information. But I think allowing a six month wait sounds promising. During the last big storm we had here, I found leaks in the garage. We had to have a new roof put on. Between that and all the doctor visits 2024 has been busy and expensive. Sure hope the year is treating you better. Despite all this or maybe because of it, I've found solace in digital design. I'm hosting 3 challenges this month at Just Art, playing the other monthly challenges and have put together for you a Valentine's Day kit and a Winter kit. If Virginia is going to get any snow it is usually in February so snow was on my mind. Since Valentine's Day is so close, I want to give you "Young Love" now
