Christmas 2010

These are the two versions of Christmas cards I sent out for this past Christmas. Someone got me into using the little gems that are on the 2nd card. I think they add something nice. Another thing I use often is ribbon. :)



The next picture is a unique one I took of a cross stitch project I've been working on for a while. This is one of the Christmas ornaments in the set.


some cards from 2010

I thought I'd share a few of the cards I made last year. Each card was made with a person in mind. Usually someone in my immediate family.

So. I'm not so good at keeping up with this blog.

Recently I've made only a few cards. I try to keep up with birthdays and Christmas.

Recently I've gotten quite a few compliments on my cards. It's been nice to hear those things. Those comments gives me a sense that I'm doing something I'm good at, something that I have a talent in that can shine a little light in other people's lives.

I hope to go farther with this hobby of mine.

Do you ever feel like it's hard to get started on making a card your thinking about for the sole reason that you have to get all the stuff out and then put it away again? This week I plan to make a card for a friend who had a baby and a birthday card for a birthday this month.

I thank God for the gift of crafting that He's given me! :)
