My very first post!

Welcome to my blog! My advice to you is "never say never!" This is the last thing I thought I'd be doing, but my mind has been changed, so here we go!

I'll start this blog by posting some of my favorite cards, usually created as a result of a challenge at the Hero Arts Blog each week. Who knows what it will evolve into over time?

Making cards gives me much joy and a creative outlet in my life. Here is a card I made recently, using a little set of Hero Arts SparkleClear stamps. It reflects the coming season, and uses a sentiment that I have adopted as a motto for my life, to find joy everyday. I hope you try to do the same.

Edited to add that sadly, this picture was lost during the downsizing of pictures from Flickr.
