Hot Air Ballon Sightings and Cards

Last Thursday I woke up, opened the blinds in my bedroom and was greeted with this sight.

It isn't very often that I see a hot air balloon floating by first thing in the morning. Actually I have never seen a hot air balloon first thing in the morning. lol! I thought this has to be a good sign that the rest of my day was going to go okay. I was a little nervous because I was scheduled to get a wisdom tooth pulled later that day.
My appointment went well though. I think it helped that I opted to get sedated while having the tooth pulled. I think it makes it much easier to just go to sleep and then wake up 15 minutes later and have it all done. I was pretty tired all weekend. Just felt like napping a lot. I'm not normally a napper so that was pretty unusual for me. Today I feel pretty good again. My mouth doesn't feel swollen anymore, so I think I'm on the road to recovery!

And since I felt pretty good today I decided to go in my scraproom and get a little creative. It has been awhile since I created anything, so I kept it pretty simple. I got the Everyday Button bits stamp set from PaperTreyInk.com a while ago and have been wanting to use it. It has so many cute images that incorporate buttons. Even though these are pretty simple, I like how they turned out. Hopefully I can get into my room some more this week and really get to some scrapping and card-making! I haven't been on a good creative roll in a long time.


Thanks for visiting me!

What pretty balloon pictures! I also love your cards! Super cute! As soon as I start feeling better I want to dive in to making some cards too. Happy to hear that your wisdom tooth pulling went well.

Your cards are adorable! I know how you feel about not being creative in a while - I can't remember the last time I scrapped. I don't think I did at all this summer. Thats sad! I did make a couple of cards but thats it. Maybe I'm more of a fall/winter scrapper. LOL
