Since I am not watching the SUper Bowl either (another PATS home....) I thought I would check in with you all and glad I did.

Following along on Twitter... and if you want to follow back, I am listing my Twitter and FB links. The more the merrier! And I do try and follow back on Twitter as well, especially to support other artists and their creative ventures.
I do find that I am more active on FB, just saying.

You don't have the opportunity to do cards other than sympathy. How about doing Pet Cards in General? You then could do all kinds of cards including sympathy. Just a thought.

Happy Birthday Sherry! Here's a Facebook link to one of my birthday cards lol (since mine are still all waiting-for-approval from GCU): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=377570062339320&set=pb.3318814702415 13.-2207520000.1359931627&type=3&theater

Doreen, I hear ya! No worries from me - I generally try to space out my Facebook posts and such, and I plan on doing the same with Twitter.

Excellent Sarah ... definitely look me up when you join Twitter and you'll have a follower

and ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHERRY!! You were quiet about that birthday Grin

My daughter, & oldest grandson called, then my son and his family called and sang Happy Birthday to me. It was very nice. I've just been sitting here watching tv and making a few new cards. That to me is relaxing. Now it's dinner time.

Do you ever sit there and make a card and get it almost done and something just doesn't look right? That's where I am right now. This card is driving me CRAZY!!!! I may have to scrap it.

Don't scrap it... set it aside and work on something else. That is what I do... then come back to it, sometimes all you need is a fresh perspective and VOILA the design comes together.

Sarah, sorry that I hadn't linked up with you on FB, but I found your site this am and Liked it too! Grin

IF I missed anyone else, just let me know

Thank you, Doreen.

Yes

That's when you create an In-Process or Unfinished folder and ash Lisa suggested you walk away. I tend to have the best luck when I leave those designs ignored for as much as 3-6 months. Then I'll stumble on them with a fresh perspective and walla ... the answers come Grin

Sarah - Okay! I'm following you now too!
