New Year, new opportunities!

Happy New Year!

It's been a while since my last post; and I've been busy fighting illnesses (whole house and work), handling life issues, and meeting project deadlines!

The scripture says, "A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men."  Prov 18:16.  In 2016, my Bishop commissioned me to make birthday cards for members' birthdays!  Well, that seems to have worked out well - so well, that I've been asked to do cards for 2017!!!  I shared this with a co-worker, who shared the information with her ministry; and now I've been commissioned to make cards for them!!!  I am so grateful for the opportunities to create handmade cards to be a blessing to others.

In addition to the cards, I am working on a special gift (belated and all) for my mom; and I can't wait to present it to her.  Hint:  It's one of Kathy King's "Everyday Life" projects (http://paperphenomenon.com).  Stay tuned!  Here's a sneak peek...



Here are a few of the cards that I've completed, thus far... (design inspirations/sketches via Pinterest).








And here are the special request candy jars that I did for a good friend...

Thank you for stopping by!  Feel free to leave a little blog love, too, please!
