Here's an adorable kitty and her witch off trick or treating. I think I best give them a treat as I would hate to get a trick from a real witch. This paper is from Paper Loft, which I picked up last weekend at the convention in San Marcos. So much fun. Spent two days there, took three different classes and walked around the convention floor for way too many hours. Totally spent too much and was totally exhausted. I got lots of fun dies (like the one I used on this card here), wonderful cardstock stickers, like the sentiment used on this card here, some beautiful papers, and lots more goodies that you will be seeing over the next year.....Woo hoo.
Now, for BLOG CANDY---Yesterday was TOTALLY awesome, I went to my Oncologist (now, often can the words awesome and ONCOLOGIST go in same sentence????), at any rate, I got my 6 month test, HOLY COW--the blood test was TOTALLY normal. NORMAL. I don't mean "kinda normal" or almost normal as he has said before, which meant, really low way below what it was supposed to be, but not so low that they are going to force you into care....I mean it read completely normal. WHAT?!?! Wow. It's been a decade since that has happened, but particularly that last couple of years as this oncologist and my current doctor have been watching so closely and trying to get me into care for a low white count and get tested for cancer. That test though is awful. UGH.
I wouldn't consent to take the test. At any rate...After the brain surgery and finally getting off the drugs from epilepsy as my seizures have stopped completely...a new blood test now shows that my white cell count has come back to normal! This means, for now, no more worries of cancer!!
I think that merits a celebration!!! I will put up some photos soon, but for now, just need to leave a comment here. I have TONS of goodies to offer, wonderful stamps, wonderful embellishments for cardmaking. WOO HOO. Will pick the winners from amongst the commenters of today's posting.
Project Materials: Cardstock (Paper Loft, Neenah, Bazzill); Stamp (Freebie--unknown though, if you know the artist, please let me know); Ink (colorbox chalk); Color (Copic Markers); Embellishments (Jolees); Sentiment (); DieCut (SPellbinders); Adhesives (Pop dots, Glue all);

I rejoice with you in your fantastic news. As a cancer survivor myself, I know how the results of those 6-month blood tests can affect you. Praise God that you are NORMAL! and I plan to have the same result when I go for my blood test tomorrow. I've been clear for 4 years now.
