My dad always used to say - the further I go the behind-er I get. If that's not me lately nothing is. The neck issue is somewhat better but not normal - whatever that is. I can do a little at a time though so that's good I suppose. But, as a result I seem to be getting behind-er on everything I do. Still plugging away though.
This is one of four birthday cards I need for the month. Got this one done for the sister in law. One out of four isn't bad. Don't you just love that sentiment! We reach a "certain age" and trust me, you know what I'm talking about when it comes to velcro shoes. Even better is probably flip flops you can just slide into, but sometimes you have to "dress up"! After the shoes all you have to do is put a dab of Ben Gay behind the ears and on the wrists and you're ready to paint the town red. LOL!
The image is from Art Impressions and sentiment from Taylored Expressions. The background was done with a stencil and distress inks and coloring on the image with Copics and a while gel pen.
I'll enter this in the challenge at Taylored Expressions - Send a Card to a Friend (this will go in the mail tomorrow!) and Addicted to Clean and Simple - Ombre.
Thanks for stopping by...........

LOL! I love the sentiment. Your card us so fun!
I can see we have the same sense of humor, Lynn. This card is a hoot! I love the sentiment and the image is perfect with it. The stenciled background looks good with her and her outfit cracks me up. I laughed out loud when I saw this, so thanks for a great start to my day.
LOL! Oh what a fun card Lynn! I love that image and beautiful stenciled background, awesome sentiment too!! Your SIL is going to love this.
I am already in barefoot mode because I only wear shoes when I leave the house LOL This is hilarious and I love the stenciled background with this hot momma image! Too much fun! My Grandparents always said the hurrier I go the behinder I get - I thought it was a PA Dutch proverb but perhaps not! I can no longer hurry up, so I just keep getting behinder as I go LOL Keep smiling, it's better than cryin' :)
This is brilliant and the quote made me giggle. I hope you feel better soon and your neck isn't giving you too many problems.
Hugs

I totally forgot I had that image - I need to find it. She looks fab in front your great stenciled bg! Really fun card, great sentiment, and I know your SIL will totally love it! I can relate to the sentiment and your comments about feeling behind. Hugz to you Lynn!
OMGoodness, this is so funny! And I feel your pain too... especially this week as I'm recovering from Aspirate Pneumonia from swallowing a pill wrong of all things! It is kicking my butt for sure, and I'm seriously behind-er!!! Thanks for giving me a reason to smile as I really needed it today!
Love the card and sentiment too Lynn - I can still (thankfully) tie my laces, but slip on shoes/slipper, and flip flops and the like are wonderful!!
Blessings

I've gone beyond the velcro and only go with slip-ons now. I love this fun card with the fun sentiment and stenciled background. Hope your neck continues to heal.
I believe her name is Eunice and I adore her. I would like to say she is my "spirit animal"! Next step is velcro for me... I already wear slip on bungee sneakers! Well done. There are a few brands of stamps I will never part with, and one is my collection of Art Impressions!
Hahaha, I love the sentiment! Your card is so cute, Lynn! I love all the pink - she is one cool lady! Hope you soon get some relief for your neck.
Fantastic fun card, yep the sentiment is brilliant. Emma
What a cute image and card! Love the sentiment, and I guess I am in trouble because I do have a pari of velcro shoes. I mostly wear them when I go to the doctors office! (They come in handy when they want you to hop on the scale)...and it seems I go more to the doctors these days...so I guess I wear them more than I thought!
Fabulous card, Lynn. Great design and brilliant sentiment. xx
I love that sentiment, Lynn, (probably because I'm sure I'll be in Velcro shoes by my birthday next month)! Great coloring and I really like that stenciled background. :-D
I can totally identify with this sentiment and I LOVE the 'Birthday Girl'! Really cute card and your ombre inking is awesome, Lynne! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Addicted to CAS!
I love this card Lynn! I think you got a great photo of it. I love the stenciled background, but it is the lady and the sentiment that cracks me up. Why? Because I'm to the point where I need either velcro or flip flops. I go with the flip flops here, or slip on's in the winter if I don't walk out the house in flip flops. lol Hugs, Brenda
Fabulous fun image and card Lynn, great background..I'm not velcro yet but certainly slip ons..
Luv CHRISSYxx
LOL! Your card is too cute Lynn! Love the pinks and stenciled background! :)
Fun card, Lynn. Thanks for sharing it with us at Addicted to CAS.
This is fabulous, Lynn!! I love your sensational stenciled background with this awesome image and fun sentiment!
OK... women of a certain age will certainly understand this! Made me laugh out loud. Fabulous card, Lynn
So glad you joined us at ATCAS this week
hugs
