Good Sunday morning to all my wonderful blogging Friends!! I just have to tell you how blessed I feel right now! I have gotten so many e-mails and comments about being missed these last few weeks. I don't even really have any great excuses for my absence. I just took a little sabbatical. And then after a while, when I did feel like working in my craft room, I found that it was really hard to come up with a card that I even liked. So, on Friday, I spent some quality time with my good friend, Becky, and we worked for about 3 1/2 hours just stamping and chatting. And I made six cards!! And it all started with this card. This is a card that Becky found on splitcoast and I just fell in love with it. So, I started by copying it. I did change the ribbon and the colors (I did keep the Old Olive color). I love the layout and you will see more cards using this layout! So, I guess the moral of this story is that when you want to get back into stamping and you are having a hard time (like I was) finding your mojo, just sit down and copy something. At least you are getting those creative juices moving around. Thanks for sticking by me and with me. You are all the BEST!! Have a super day!
