It's All About the Challenge

It's Sunday evening and I'm feeling very content with the crafting I have done this weekend. I love being in this phase of the creativity cycle when my ideas are flowing. It feels good having my mojo back. On the other hand - I'm stockpiling a lot of cards. I think I might need to consider selling them. I'm just not sure of the best way to do it. I have completed five cards for five challenges. It makes me so happy. So without further ado...here come the cards!

Color Throwdown

*This is a joy fold card. I found a great tutorial here. I really hope the addition of orange is okay.

Cinema Saturday Challenge

Mojo Monday

Friday Sketchers

Card Positioning Systems 138

I hope everyone has a lovely week. I for one am hoping it's goes by quickly and without much notice. I hope you liked the cards. Please leave a comment if you have any suggestions for what to do with my ever growing card stash. Until then...Happy Crafting!

About Me

I am a crafter trying to learn to find my way and nurture my creativity. I flirt with scrapbooking and cardmaking on a semi-regular basis and long to sink my teeth into mixed-media works and art journaling. I'm hoping to make the transition soon. I'm an avid reader, blog stalker, and pinterest junkie. I collect art and craft magazines by the bundle. I have a passing acquaintance with Twitter and love any opportunity to find new sources of inspiration. I absolutely love all things cupcake and secretly hope to be a master cake baker some day. I also am an animal lover - including the crazy, banshee cat I have living in my home - otherwise known as Tonks or Roo or Rooba and the list goes on. Thanks for stopping by.

"But nothing important, or meaningful, or beautiful, or interesting, or great ever came out of imitations. The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself."

~Anna Quinlan

For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
