I have the BEST blog friends!! I received a couple of "hope you're recovering" cards yesterday....

The one on the left is from Kate and the one on the right is from Julie.
I love that design on the card from Kate....great colors.
Julie also sent me a whole package of goodies. She called it a "couch craft kit"....

All kinds of papers, stickers, letters, and several ATC blanks. Just the perfect thing to get me back into doing some art! Thank you, Julie and Kate. You're so thoughtful.
Julie used some really cool tape on the package....

They're little tiki guys! I love it!!

Today I finally got out of the house and made a trip to B&N. I think they were just about to close the store since I hadn't been there in so long! But I saved them. I bought the new Art Journaling magazine and a really nice Canson spiral-bound journal....

The pages are 90 lb watercolor paper so it should work great for an art journal. I like the 9" x 12" size, too. I got it for $17.99. Then we stopped at Michael's and they had Canson journals just like this one only they had sketch paper in them and they wanted $21.99 for theirs! I guess I got a deal.
Now I'm going to spend the rest of the day in the studio playing with all my new goodies, making the ATCs that I owe to Beth, and maybe starting a journal page. Yep, I think I'm on the mend!!!
I hope you're all having a fun day.

So good to hear that your mending. Last year, I had an impacted wisdom tooth removed and my chin and lower lip were numb too. My lip is STILL numb, but every time I go back, the dentist keeps telling me that it will keep getting better. At least it wasn't the one side of my tongue (which he thought it could have been-no taste buds, Oh my!)
My tooth was completely wrapped around my nerve--that's why.
Well anyway--great goodies you received from great friends, and HEY--I just bought that same magazine yesterday too. I'm cutting back on shows next year, so my goal is to start AND finish a journal in 2011!!
So very cool!!! Where did she find that tape???
Oh,,I am so glad your feeling better, except for that numb chin. I hope it gets back to normal soon, that would bug me,,lol.
I want to go get that magazine now,,
Keep healing, Janet!
xoxoxoxo
Have fun with your goodies and I sure hope you feel better soon!!!!
so glad to hear that youre on the mend! Hope your jaw comes back to normal too very soon, my Dd had that prob when she had her wisdom tooth out, it somehow impacts on the jaw nerve. Anyway a bit of art should see you right!
YAY! I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better. I've missed you!
Happy you liked the package, Janet!
