Handmade Greeting Card


Last night I felt like making a few new handmade cards - This is one of them - My living room coffee table looked like a tornado hit - I had all paper scraps, embellishments, etc all over the place - I wanted to go through my craft supplies before I began ... Am I the only one that makes a mess while creating?

  1. Kristine, you are not the only one, you should see my table, or should I say - you couldn't see my table under the pile of all kinds of bits and pieces :) We all make the mess, and I think there is no other way to create. Who cares about it when we are creating and letting our soul sing! The only important thing is to have fun! :)

  2. I forgot to write - I love the card, especially the blue butterfly - you know it's my favorite color :)

  3. Thanks, Sonja - Makes me feel better knowing that I am not the only one that is buried in scraps, paper, etc ... LOL ... Thank you for your kind words regarding my card ... I am beginning to love butterflies as much as hearts these days ... Funny how our tastes change ...

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

Letters Across The Miles

LETTERS ACROSS THE MILES  Dear Jennifer, I am quite excited to be sharing this journey of "Old Fashioned Letter Writing" (online) with you ... It is a long lost personal touch that needs to be revisited. We live in a world of Tweets, IMs & text messages - Time to Get Back to Basics! I wanted to touch upon your recent thoughts on "Perfection". I, too, find myself procrastinating over starting new projects. The fear I will not be able to finish what I start. My second thought is failing myself for not going the distance. I was amazed with a few quick chats and we were out of the gate running with this new column - and new additions to our blogs, "Letters Across the Miles". I think this is the "Push" that we both needed to jump right in! Funny, how you also mentioned how our grade school teachers would ask us to "Show Them Our Work" when it came to Math problems ...and weaving this theme into real life. Can yo...
