I make all my own cards too Snowy. I know what you mean about the clearing up after though!
Because my craft stuff is now in the refurbed back of the garage. It is still cold out there, so the other week, I brought all my coloured card and paper in and put it on the dining room table to sort out in colours and thickness. Brian said a little while afterwards, that my 'stuff' was taking over.
What do you mean I asked him. Well, he said its all over the dining table now. I told him I was only sorting it out, then its going back in its right place. What a pl**ker!
I've just finished cross stitching a birthday card for Baylee. His birthday isn't until October, but I wanted to get it finished so I can concentrate on the grandkids Christmas cards in plenty of time, but I'm having a mental block there too at the moment.
Love your cards. People love it don't they when you do something that is personal to them? Like the one for baylee, its only a simple design, but its 2 little hurricane airplanes as he loves WWII aircraft!
