Thought I'd share what I got done a couple weekends back when it was World Card Making Day. I was going to use the September Kit I got at my LSS kit club, then I realized I had much more pressing matters! I've been trying to send cards to ALL my family (in-laws and outlaws LOL!) since the end of August. So far so good btw. :) I thought I'd make more birthday cards to send, or get some Haloween cards ready. So anywho, I was standing in the mess that is my studio space trying to get ready to create. Before I could create though, I needed to find the floor!
Step one was gathering all the cards that were mostly finished. The ones that didn't have an envie, didn't have a sentiment, or didn't have my signature stamped on the back. Do you SEE how many cards I found lying around my studio?!?!?!?!? When I saw how many I had rounded up, creating new stuff got pushed to the back burner. I needed to finish what I started! I had card from classes I had taken, reject cards from class sample production that needed a few tweaks, from DT work that never made it to the final stages for whatever reason, extras from multi card sets I created, and some from challenges I never entered.
Some of these cards are SO OLD! I can't believe I left them undone for so long. So I gathered everything I needed and brought it up to the cottage to work. DH was at my DBIL's annual men's weekend gathering so I could complete my mission in peace. ;D
I sorted the cards by occasion and worked my way through all but a handful. It was insane how many cards I had- and now have ready to mail out! Yippee! I even had some great cards for guys that just needed a sentiment to make them ready to send for all those guy birthdays. I am soooo happy!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Hooray for you!! While I can't say I enjoy cleaning and organizing, it does make me feel good to sort through things and complete some unfinished projects!
