New Tag!

So, I was playing in psp and decided to create a new tag. I’ve really been trying to create more Christmas themed tags lately and sometimes they might turn out and other times I look at the tag after I made it and think; well, it’s just okay. This particular tag I think is just okay. I probably could have done a better job but I did have some other things I was dealing with at the moment also. And I always find that when you have your mind elsewhere when doing any graphic stuff, it will never turn out like you planned.

So, the best advice I can give (not only to myself, lol) is to make sure you’re completely into what you are doing, when you are doing it. Or else you will end up with something that is just “okay”. And I don’t know about you, but if I know that I could do better, then I need to focus on doing just that. Doing better. That’s some good advice for anyone.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Crafting Again

So, winter is a good time to sit inside where it’s warm and do some crafting. The past week I made 4 new journals. Below are previews and listed from left to right are the following;  An altered book journal, a flip-flop journal, an accordion journal and a one signature Valentine kitty theme journal.

journals I made

Yup, I’ve been pretty busy crafting and I’m loving every minute of it, lol. Oh, and I have some old packaging from a club cracker box and thought I would make a journal out of that too. I love recycling packaging from trash like that and they can make some great covers for journals too. When I get a chance, I will show you some of the other journals I created using food packaging too.

Anyway, just thought I’d show you what I’ve been up to lately. Of course I am still making tags for my online group too. But in-between doing that, I’ve been making journals and crocheting too. Got to keep busy these days because time is starting to fly by and I’d hate to wake up one morning and think, wow, I could have done this or that but I never did. I’m sure the world is full of should have’s from people all over the place. The trick is, don’t be one of them.

Thanks for stopping by and hugs,
