"What a great idea," I told myself. "I can do this!" I said. "Put your mind to it," I heard myself command. But it still hasn't happened like I imagined. What, you ask, have I not tackled with tons of enthusiasm??? Blogging! I have always admired people who can do this daily or even weekly, and stay true to the purpose. I was an ELA (English Language Arts) teacher for YEARS... surely I could make myself sit down and blog! Ya think??? Well, it may be easy for many, but for me, this has been a very demanding job! I love nothing more than to sit down and peruse everyone else's blogs and tutorials about their cards. I especially love pulling out my paper and starting projects. And I THRIVE on having my small group of ladies come to "class" once a month to try new things. But I really was thinking, maybe someone else out there would love to just "give it a try." Making cards has been a wonderful outlet for me - it brings me joy to give beautiful cards to friends, I love sharing the fruits of my craft with the hospital and nursing home, and it is a wonderful way to "escape" the stress of today's world. So if you, like me, would like to try your hand at something new, let me know. I can set you up with a great kit, a tutorial, or a hodgepodge of crafting supplies to make your crafty dreams come true. AND you'll feel absolutely fantastic when your work is done!


Don't you just love the rainbow paper? It's available for free during Sale-a-Bration if you spend $50. This was such a quick and easy baby shower card. It came together like a dream... the colors were easily coordinated (that's one of the absolute BEST parts of Stampin'Up) and the sentiments were right at hand in some of my stamp sets. Would you like to make a set of cards? Watch for news on my next class.
