It was pointed out to me... about three weeks ago... that I haven't updated recently. (SHOUT OUT! to Rose, who called me out. Sorry, Rose!) I'm one of those people who do well with short term projects but not necessarily with long term ones... My bad. I'll try to do this more consistently, though.
It's not that I have nothing to write about. In general, I do. I can easily pull something out of almost every day and write about it. It's just that I don't.
Here's what's new!
Recently, my project has been Christmas cards. I made about 70 of the buggers. I actually started sometime in the summer, August perhaps. I made a handful then, more through the fall, then recently A) finished up the hot-glue-needing ones, B) finished what I thought was the remainder, and C) finished up the 15 that I still needed. Talk about a miss-count.
This project wouldn't be so bad if I didn't make them all to be unique. None are the same; most are dissimilar. A few may have a very similar style, but won't alike beyond that. I'm not complaining or anything. I really enjoy making cards... but after 30 my creativity drops a little and I have to think more about what I want to do. I make 7 to be penguins for my sorority sisters. I make about 10 that are very religious for certain members of my family. Some I make aviation-themed for certain friends. Then we have the more secular ones for other friends... It adds up. I want new material to work with. Mostly, I work with Christmas cards and wrapping paper that I cut up; the aviation-themed cards usually have old flight maps.
(Shameless begging: If you have a stash of old Christmas cards from years past... Hook me up!)
Let's seeeee... I'm still subbing, which I'll rant about soon. I'm still at Ruby Tuesday. I'm still baking at least weekly. I guess that's it for now. :) More to come!
