My card party cards – Love You Much and more
I just finished cleaning up my kitchen after my card party this afternoon (we stamp in the dining room since right now all my stamping stuff is on tv trays and a bookcase in there). Today, in addition to the ladies who were stamping with me, their young daughters were with us as well (ages 4 [...]

Making the “magazine” card holder
I’ve gotten a few requests to post the dimensions for the card hold I made that looks like a magazine file.

Nifty file organizer for storing your greeting cards
So after 2 days of heavy drugs and lots of sleeping, I’m feeling much better. I tried crafting over the last couple days but only managed to sit upright for about 10 minutes before getting dizzy. I made some progress and was able to finish up a couple projects this afternoon and now put the [...]
