Wow! and Thank you!
I am very awed and humbled by the generous outpouring of kindness you have given me in the last 24 hours!! I will write more about the details of things, but today I will just give you broad strokes since I am still working.

Last night after writing the post, I found out that today is World Card Making Day - tomorrow I will do the link. I decided that it was a good excuse to dive in without worrying too too much. I want to do the Environmental Blog Day painting more carefully!
It was quite a ride for me for several hours. I hadn’t painted with a brush for a couple of years, I hadn’t done any cards for quite a bit longer and I had never done ACEO or ATC - more tomorrow on them. It was quite hard for several hours. But after awhile, things started to gel for me.
I am done creating for today, but I am still uploading ACEOs for the challenge. You can check out what I have posted so far at my other blogs here and here. There are no duplicate ACEO images between the 2 blogs. And I hadn’t posted on either since I posted about the Blog Action Day - so that is when you will know you have seen all I have posted tonight.
I will respond tomorrow to your comments - THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!! - and your blogs too. I appreciate you all so so much!
Of course, I am glad to hear about you!

I saw you cards and they are lovely as all your work is. I bet you had lots of fun making those. I can see where your strong points lie. Shapes and colors! Things that move and pulsate in these cards.

I had a look at all the others, left comments there. Well done you brave lady.
Fantastic. Life-affirming. We can see your happiness and energy flowing from all those cards.

Yea! I love these cards, you haven’t lost it…just like riding a bicycle, a little wobbly at first, but doesn’t take long to get back in the swing of things.
