Happy New Year's Eve

 Hello everyone,

Tomorrow will mark a new year - 2024 - and I have been planning what to do to keep me busy and continuing helping my brother with his non-profit to help the homeless and other things like card making.

Here's something I made for my January (a new swap with my friend, Audrey) that was sent to her earlier:


Audrey chose to do ATCs for 2024 so I thought Kwanza would be a great idea.  I wouldn't mind partaking in this festivity but always forget because it begins after Christmas' traditional holiday (12/26).  But it's a thought.

Look at those beautiful colors.  It was hard to add to it but I love the theme and the clipart that I found via Google.

Happy New Year 2024!

Swapping Booklet

 Hi there,

Boy is December slowly passing on...though it's been a bit since I've last posted here; though I am quite busy getting things done on my swaps and card charities; not to mention the hygiene packs I made for my brother's non-profit.

For one swap with Swap-bot.com, we had to stamp some images and make a booklet.  Here's what I made:


I couldn't do Christmas because that holiday would be in the past and my partner would have little need for the stamped images.  So, Valentine worked - she gave me a 5 with a heart and stated she really liked it.








For the side of pages that were blank, I added stickers from the element sheet that came with the paper collection kit.


This was a fun swap.  There was one with animals and people but I forgot to take photos.

Happy Swapping!

More Cards for the Charity

 Hello everyone,

It's that time of year again - more cards that went to send a smile to others.


I like the way the images look on Kraft paper, don't you?


When December arrives (it feels like it's now but we have a few weeks before it's official), I will show the winter themed cards I'm going to send.

Happy Crafting!
