What a friend

I've got my Etsy shop set up.

Hopefully that link will go

to the shop....   I think it
will have to be copied
and pasted though.
I'm really  hoping

that it will generate some interest.

I made this card this morning.

I love  how it turned out.  I really

like the way black and white looks

just by itself.  I considered

colouring in the "friend" and

"Jesus" but I like it just in black

and white.  I made the embossed

panel a long time ago and for

some reason it didn't work with whatever

card I was working on at the time

and I've had it ever since.  I think

it looks great on this card, though!  

That just goes to show that I need

to keep things that don't necessarily

work on a card, because it might

on another.  I have a bad habit of

throwing everything away and then

I think of something to use

it for and it's gone!  When I was

 a kid I was a packrat and as I got

older I started throwing away

all the stuff that I had

accumulated as a teen.  Lots of

notes that were passed in class, things

like that.  Ever since then I've thrown

things away almost immediately.  Things

I wish I'd kept, like letters from my

grandma, yearbooks, and other

things I should really have held onto.

But it's gone now and there's nothing

I can do about that.  Lesson learned.

I try to hold on to things that might

mean something to me some day.  

 I have used the word "things" 5

times in the last couple of sentences!

You would think with a vocabulary like

mine that I could think of something else.

I love words.  I sent my 5 year old

to school one day and he told the

teacher the classroom had a

nice ambiance.   That

was his word for the day!
