Hi Stampers,
Happy Friday friends !
I Thought I would give you an update.
I posted about my flare up with my hands and a few other places this past Sunday .
I’m happy to report I seen my RA doctor on Tuesday and he knew right away I was not doing to good.
He gave me a RX to fill which my pharmacy
was giving me issues on filling with my insurance ,
I ended up having to purchase outright~ (that’s a whole other story)
By the time I got that all figured out with them,
I was able to get the RX filled later Wednesday evening
and by Thursday morning I was feeling so much better.
Not quite 100 % but so much better than what I was feeling over the last couple weeks.
Have you ever felt so yucky that even thinking hurt ?
yup that was me.
Thank you for emailing/ and leaving your thoughtful comments
and for all your prayers.
Today is a NEW day ~ I’m so very very Thankful !

My team and I started a Card Sketch Challenge
for our FB team page and
I thought I would share the 1st CSC with all of you .
Maybe you want to play along.
Here is the CSC with then measurements
I did our team sketch in all neutral colors .
What this does is expand your creative minds to not be limited on
what my finished design is .
Sometimes a totally “finished card” limits other ideas on what you can
make with the same sketch
so keeping in all “Neutral” it makes it
( I believe ) easier for you to put your own special touch on the design challenge.
Hopefully this makes sense …..
so here is my finished card ~ WOW !
Hey it’s pretty simple I know but
I could do a quick FB Live video for you next week
if you like ….let me know ( comment below)
Maybe in a different color with Silver accents ?
It turned out way better than I imagined in my mind
PLUS I think with me feeling better
I may have went a tad bit over the top
but hey , who cares when you’re having fun right ?
I hope you have fun with our Card Sketch Challenge.
Personally I use card sketches A LOT!
You can find them everywhere especially if your on Pinterest
it’s always fun to grab a layout design you like and make it your own .
Helps a lot with the No/ Low MOJO stamping times as well
( I know that you know what that is right ? )
I added all the items I used on my card below just in case you were wondering .
***********************************************
Hey I am also starting a series of Q&A’s
and I would love to know if any one of you have any stamping related questions
or really any questions in general that you would like for me to answer
via a video or FB live in the very near future .
Leave your questions below or email me with the
subject line
Q&A for the Glitter Pit
to me at
Stampingtilldawn@yahoo.com .
Thank you for peeking in today .

So glad to hear your RA pain has been relieved!!! I hope that it continues to get better so you can take the long bike trips with your hubbie!
Hi Dawn. I suffer from psoriatic arthritis and fibromyalgia. Both Embrel and Cimzia made me horrendously sick/allergic reactions. I know the insurance drama all too well! I can relate to pain brain fog, hurting so much it hurts to think-all that! You are in my thoughts and prayers! It’s maddening to me when my hands won’t do what they used to! But…it could be worse. I just try and practice balancing my spoons for each day (check out The Spoon Theory if you don’t already know about it-good analogy!)
What good news that you are starting to feel better once again. Hope it will continue ?.
So pleased that you are feeling better. I love your videos and you inspire me tremendously.
Glad you were able to finally get your medicine. I know all about insurance being more of a pain than the pain you feel when you’re sick. No fun!
I am praying for you. Feeling bad and hurting is tough. You do such informative videos and your cards are amazing. You have such an imagination and creativity. Keep on crafting. You have a gift❤️
Glad you are feeling better Dawn!! I’m a new fan of your card making videos and just love your creativity!! I also suffer from a yet unnamed arthritis/fibromyalgia/polymyalgia rheumatica type of condition so treating it us a challenge. Some days are better than others. When I sit and try to replicate your wonderful cards it helps me to not think about my pain. So keep creating and I’ll keep praying for you!
Hi Dawn, I am so glad your doctor is able to help you and hope the medicine kicks in fast! It’s encouraging that you’re feeling better already. Your card is wonderful and I hope there will be more card sketches to come!
Just love your work. My prayers are going out to you.
So glad your feeling better! Sending you lots of (((Hugs))) & prayers!
This card is beautiful!
So glad you are feeling better….just catching up on your posts and my emails….I
ve had to fight with the insurance to get my RX filled, my doctor finally went to an outside pharmacy…I think they call it compounds or something, and got the RX filled much cheaper….Hang in There 1 I love your posts!
