Its been a while!

Life is slowly coming together again after the Christmas rush and my house is once again in order and tidy most of the time. That is, except when I decide to craft and pull my supplies out, suddenly the organized setting becomes a disaster zone. It never ceases to amaze me just how much creativity, can bring out the monster in me :)

 

Since being married, my birthday card requirement every year has doubled. Now, instead of only having to make 25 cards for the family, there are more like 50 every year, plus anniversaries, babies ... I've determined that I am not going to wait until I need cards, but try to make a few every now and then when I'm feeling crafty or have spare time. That way, I'm never pressured into making anything. I find that I'm not very creative under pressure! 

I raided my scrap box the other night and came away with three cards that all used the same paper, one of my favourite lines from My Minds Eye, the Fine and Dandy line. All the cards are more or less simple but with so many cards to make, sometimes thats best!
