Aurora Wings new release

No, I didn't actually fall off the face of the earth.

I have been tending to my new ailment; carpal tunnel syndrome.

Kind of an artist's worst nightmare, not to mention a frequent crafter's

worst worst nightmare as well. 

I love my new job where I work with small hand tools and 

use my very own high powered microscope. The down side is that my

awesome new job has caused a possibly preexisting condition to rear it's

fugly head and leave me in pain and frustration.

BUT, I put my big girl panties on and keep on truckin'.

Coloring and creating just takes me even longer than usual and has forced me to

work on my very poor time management skills. 

I honestly just wanted to cry (and I did) when I got diagnosed, but life goes on.

And I know so many have so much worse to deal with, so no whining here.

Onward and upward.

Mitzi has come out with some incredible new images, and I just couldn't resist 

giving the adorable little Lupine Sprite a new paint job.

Such a sweetie!

I went with my usual vibrant color scheme, and even added some polka dots

to her little face for more interest. I usually don't deviate from Mitzi's original

images, but felt like being a rebel this time out.

I added some Rock Candy distress glitter to her petals, but am not loving

how it came out. Stickles may have been a better choice for this application,

but still overall pretty pleased with myself on this card.

I always need "Thinking of You" cards for friends and family, so this

one is perfect for my stash of cards. 

Be sure to take advantage of the generous offer Mitzi has for this release.
