After a long day with a teething baby and dreary rain outside, my husband gave me the night off and told me to go to my craft room. I quickly obliged. I’ve been away for a couple of days, but my brain has been active. I watched a couple videos this last weekend of the …
A few months ago I joined a local rubber stamp club. We meet once a month at a local library, socialize, learn about local crafting events, do a group project, and have a card swap. I have tons of cardstock scraps left over from making Christmas cards, so I decided to make cards using mostly …
