card day.

World Card Making Day.  i am doing this.  i don't really know a whole-heck-of-a-lot about it but i gathered this much...


SOMEBODY got together and designated the first saturday in october to kick off the holiday cardmaking season.  i've been thinking about diving more into card making lately as i often wish i had them on hand when i remember an event/occasion at last minute.  of course i have piped out cards on a moments notice but never do i feel like i've done my creative best.  sigh.


so, while continuing to think about card making i ran across this little cutie while out browsing thrift stores in town.  isn't she cute and has the greatest potential to hold a loverly cluster of handmade cards...made by ME?! ;)

 she appears to be brand new and still had the orignal gift store tag on back when i grabbed her up for a mere .75 cents!!!!!!!  i know, i know....lucky me. ;)


well, if you are madly making cards this saturday....have a creative day!

    Great find Amy!
    I didn't know about card making day & I was telling someone else...I really need to get back into keeping up with some sort of scrappy site so I can at least hear about these days!
    I hope you will share some of the cards you made :)
