Where to begin? Well, let's start with a quote that pretty much sums up my life right now:
I've been really busy, and really happy. So much has happened, well not that a lot has happened, but so much has changed in the past few weeks. I made some huge decisions. And it's all really, really good. No, in fact it's GREAT.
I did another fair last weekend, and it went well.
I'm still in the awareness building phase, ie right now my main objective is letting people know that I'm out there and trying to educate a bit about what is scrapbooking. Nevertheless, I did have some customers, which of course I was happy for.
I had been inspired last week to make cards, which I sold at my booth, and they sold really well. So well, that I have been making cards all week to sell at another fair this weekend (I won't be having a booth at the fair, but a friend of mine who sells her handmade jewelry will sell them for me.)
Inspiration from all over. Check out my pinterest cards board and you'll see some of the cards I adapted. No two cards are the same, so even though I will be doing four of each design, they each have different wording, different colours, different size or shape Christmas trees, or something. My Slice has come in soooo handy!Every single surface in my apartment is covered with scrapbooking stuff. Thank goodness I have a tolerant husband!
This is my dining table. I had to move here since my own desk is piled about 10 inches high with stuff, and the other little table in my bedroom is also covered with stuff.
Even if this venture doesn't work out, I am enjoying every minute of it. Following my heart and pursuing my dream is so incredibly invigorating. When you're doing what you love, it's true, everything just is so alive.
Now back to my cards!
