I have spent almost ALL my free time crafting lately and I simply LOVE it more and more each day. If they ever find a cure for Fibro and I could ever go back to work, I know that I would LOVE to work in a field related to card marking, scrap-booking or paper-crafting. But, I also know that right now, that is not likely to happen and that as much as I LOVE to create...even that can still wipe me out.
After crafting almost ALL day Saturday....I was good for nothing yesterday and I am still actually sore today...that's the part of Fibro I hate so much. Whenever I have FUN doing anything, I have to pay the price for a few days. But...I am still so thankful that I do have crafts in my life and when I feel good.....being creative is good for me....! I think without it...I'd be lost and very depressed! It's a wonderful part of my life and I'm grateful for the days when I can create.
...and speaking of creations here a couple of my most recent Project 365 Pages. I had fun making the Halloween page, which was my page for this week.
This next layout was from the week before and all kind of related to a "Great Impressions" card class I took that week with my friend Patty, and the goodies I also bought at my LSS that week. I also has a picture of a card I made for Two Peas 'Finally Friday' challenge. I LOVE challenges now and they really help me to learn new techniques and ideas!
And this next card I made for the card challenge on the "Challenge Master" website. This site is really awesome; it has several challenges in all kinds of different categories. I may try the "Technique" or "Color" challenge next.
This Card Challenge was to create a Circular Card, with a holiday theme, that included the color blue,
somewhere on the card. This is the
card I submitted! I LOVE
these new Snowflake Brads by Karen Foster,
they are gorgeous!
Today....I need to take it easy and heal a bit more! I've already been to my Craft Group and watched a Craft Show on HSN this morning. Now I think I'm rest a bit more and catch up on reading the posts in the gorup!
This afternoon, I may work on coloring some more images I have already stamped. I am in LOVE in my Copics and coloring is a very calming and relaxing!
Hugs to all my wonderful friends!
