One thing I know about crafters is that they are inventive and resourceful. When one is restricted from crafting for whatever reason, the need to craft (despite having worked ahead on obligations and having posts pre-scheduled) increases and ways will be found, always!
Hand coloring images can be the most difficult part but a thorough look through the folder of images which were colored weeks or months ago can produce absolute gems. Die cutting is fairly simple and can be done one-handed or with the help of family and friends. :-D Those same family and friends can be very helpful when it comes to layering things together, following the simplest of instructions or even a messily scribbled diagram. Finally, they can be extremely useful when it comes to typing up the post. :-D

She is darling, connie! Holly leaves are one of my favorite things to color! Your shading is lovely, and the tiny highlights on each of the berries is fantastic! Beautifully designed, my friend! hugs, de

Sounds like you might know some of these things first hand. : ) So nice that you have family and friends to help you out. A beautiful card, all around. That image is adorable and the coloring is fabulous! Thanks for playing with Jo's Scrap Shack.
Oh thank heavens you have a lot of help while you recover. I had visions of you typing away with one hand till all hours of the night :O)! Wasn't sure how you were putting the cards together. Aren't friends and family a blessing. Love the Aurora Wings card.
