I started stamping and card making several years ago when my daughter took me to a home stamping party. When she no longer wanted them, I bought ALL her stamps AND all her friend's stamp pads, mailed them to Colorado where I'm living now, and started playing more seriously. I love card making, painting or drawing, sewing and all kinds of crafts.

Brandt's Boulevard Sew-Along
I'm excited to be making this gorgeous wallet from ChrisW Designs next week, along with friend Rachel of Tiger in a Tornado. I'll try to post updates here, more to keep myself on task than anything else! I've decided to use this fabric combo:
Rachel is responsible for getting me into sewing mode again by introducing me to the Necessary Clutch Wallet from Emmaline Bags. I've made six of them now. I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of it now! These are my two latest - I've been experimenting with making a bit more room for my iPhone and with different methods and interfacings. It's one of those patterns that's addictive, and I suspect the Brandt's Boulevard may prove to be a little that way too.
I had lots of fun at card class yesterday - all the ladies' cards were gorgeous and creative, and I got some REALLY good ideas for ways to change up my samples. I need to make at least 4 birthday cards today, so the leftover kits will go to good use. I guess if I'm going to keep at this blogging thing I should take more pictures... Thanks to Courtney, here are pictures from a year ago to compare. Doesn't she do nice work?
