This is a card I made for a friend's daughter that was getting married.  

This was for my youngest grandson's 8th birthday

A graduation card for one of my grandson's at the time girlfriend

This was for my brother-in-law, Don's birthday

This little cutie is my grandnephew, Asher.  It is a mini album in the shape of a camera that is also a birthday card.  

This is from a class I took.  It is a camera box and inside is a mini album.  They are so very cute.  I have made 6 more since the Disney one that I made in class.  Love this. 

These are just a few of the things that I have made during my hiatus from blogging.  I have learned many things about myself.  One being that I love paper.  There are so many companies out there that make beautiful paper.  There isn't enough time to use all that I currently have but let me tell you I am going to try.

I'mmm Back

 Hello,

It has been so since doing this blog.  I am hoping that I can find time to post paper projects on that I make for you.  I am in love with paper.  I never thought I would be so excited about such an ordinary thing, but I have to say PAPER is not ordinary.  So many beautiful papers are out there, and I just don't want to cut some of it up into pieces.

So, what have I been doing?  Well, I have taken some time for myself.  I have also taken some classes in paper projects.  I will show some photos of those.   I have also been doing a lot of genealogy.  Then there were the family reunions that my sister and I organized for our nieces and nephews and extended families.  Those were fun but the torch has been passed down to the next generation now which frees me up to do other things.  

Although genealogy takes up a lot of time, I intend to continue with a volunteer opportunity, that of co-coordinator of the Technology Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Villages Genealogical Society.  I say co coordinator but at this point I am leading the group alone.  I am hoping that by the time next fall rolls around someone will step up to the plate and help me with the group.  One would think that I am computer savvy, but I am not.  I can turn one on but that is about it.  I am able to do research on genealogy programs that are out there and so that is what we do in the Technology SIG.

Even with that, I am going to start using this blog for my paper things again.  As I said early there is so much beautiful paper out there and so little time.  I do plan to start out slow so look for a post once a week to begin with.  As I get back into the swing of things I will post more often
