So now that I finally got my office/crafting area organized I thought I would share a couple pictures of things that went on this week in that wonderfully organized area!! There is one project that I have to save for a couple of weeks to post but suffice it to say—-I am excited about it and can’t wait to do more!!!!
The main project this week was to make some cards. My supply is dwindling basically because during Lent I promised that instead of giving something up I would write a letter every day (well–40 days at least) to someone in my life who has made a difference to me or is important to me in some way. I have way more than 40 people so it may continue beyond Easter but for now that was what I planned to do. And it has been pretty neat to sit down with a pretty card and stick a letter in telling someone how much they mean to me. We don’t do that enough, in my humble opinion.
So here are a few of the cards that I have made over the past week. It is so much easier to find things now that I am organized. Still haven’t actually pulled the Cricut out but had fun doing these even without it!!! Plenty of time for that later! I didn’t take very great pictures this time but you get the idea!!!
Wow, those are great! You must have so much fun doing them…
The pictures are really bad……I need to get better light or something. Add to that I had cats walking into the pictures…….
Your cards are beautiful … this is the first time I have seen any of your work. I look forward to seeing more.
Organizing is a pain, but it pays off. I have had to stop and take the time to do it myself. The trick is to keep it that way. It takes time, but well worth it.

I probably could do a huge post on the cards I have made–not sure how many folks are really interested but you know what—they could skip reading for the day, right? :O It’s all good!!! Organizing is so worth it in the end but until it is done it is a HUGE mess!!! I can attest to that!!! Happy Sunday!
You are so talented in so many ways Beth Ann,,How do you find the time? I have trouble just keeping up with my blog and my e-mails..oh, and a game or two of words with friends..as you know.
I am not gainfully employed like most folks……that is how!
Blogging alone, can become a full time occupation though, can’t it?
Nice job, Beth Ann. I need to follow your good example.
First, I think it’s great that you wrote letters for Lent. That’s one of the coolest things I’ve heard of in a while!
Also, these cards are so, so fun. Wish I could craft with you. My favorite is the “over the hill” card! Well done, my friend!
Hugs,
Kathy
Your cards are beautiful! I just got up to take a rest as I have been working on my cards.
Thanks!!! I will be anxious to see your latest ones!!!
Beth Ann, these are awesome. I love the butterfly ones… if I had the time I would love to do something like that. Maybe one day when my nest is empty and I have more time. 🙂
Of course I loved them all!! I really need to get some done this week. Keep the pictures coming. You know I love seeing what you come up with each time.
What a nice thing to do!
I try!!! 🙂 It is really a good exercise in thanking people for what they have done in my life and has been received really well!!! I am receiving as well as giving!
Adorable! That’s a lot of work…your recipients will be touched I’m sure.
Thanks!! It is such a great creative outlet for me and it has gotten a little out of control when I look at all of my “supplies” but still…I love making them!
