Greetings!

I love card stores. Hallmark, Papyrus, section of Target, you name it - they're all like magnets to me. My husband purposely tries to keep my head looking away from these stores or sections because he knows once I go in, it's game over. But aren't greeting cards so fun? Really - they're just "fun". Who doesn't like getting cards? Anytime we prepare a gift for anyone, my husband never understands why I put more thought into buying the perfect card than the gift. Anyone can find the same gift for anyone but no 2 people write the same thoughts into words on a card for that recipient. Cards translate the love from the giver to the recipient so much more than the gift itself. The idea of looking for that specific card, for that specific occasion, for that specific person is just fun & so meaningful to me. What kind of a card you pick says so much about you, too. Are you the type that likes those cards with the funny jokes or the sentimental poem? I'm neither. I like just simple, cute, plain but not boring cards. I always pick the ones that husband used to say "it looks like something you can just make at home!". And whaddayouknow! I do now! :)

In the shop now...
I'm still working on those personalized cards. I need to just finish up Gocco'ing them.

Thank you for visiting~ Cheers!
