Crazy Time…

My sister goes on vacation and asks me to blog for her and look it is Sunday Night and I haven’t done much of it all week and I know she will say that is fine but I just realized…I never had that much time this week to begin with.

Monday, Wednesday and usually Friday are busy days at work, but this week on Wed was a meeting at 5:45 that lasted until 9:15pm, Thursday was my husbands review day for a midterm that he had to take yesterday at 1pm (yes, Saturday!). Plus the other little buddies were up yesterday for a cousins photo shoot and I was just exhausted!

So what else can I talk about….Card making! I am a stamper and have been for about 5 years now…it all started with a demo workshop by a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator and I was hooked. Of course it took in my MIL and SIL too so we had lots to do whenever we got together. The best little tip I got was when sitting down to make 1 card, make 2 of the same. You usually will cut a piece of cardstock in half so you might as well make 2 and save one for when you forgot to make a card that you wanted to send! It has saved me just this past week when I was able to mail a birthday card to friend and not forgot like I have been known to do in the past!
Also, Ribbon is a great inexpensive embelishment for cards….lots of places have it and you get yards for just a buck or two! Ribbon can dress up any card, wrap it around it, tie it, make a bow, tie off small pieces on a side….whatever you want to do.

Udandi will be back soon and I have enjoyed posting….if she lets me, from time to time I will pop on and give some other things I have been working on a shot and get them posted.

Happy Crafting!
