A little papercrafting.....

Well...my plans to stitch the day away didn't happen. Hubby in my stitching chair watching a Netflix on the computer forced me to spend two hours at my craft table. Too uncomfortable to stitch, I decided to make some Christmas cards. I love doing papercrafts but I am "messy". In two hours, I went from this.....

to this......

The fruits of my labor?


Three simple cards that I am not completing loving! Huh???? Just couldn't get the creative juices flowing and then the "mess" was frustrating so I had to quit! Now...time for some stitching after I clean up the mess! Hope your day was more productive and filled with happy stitches.....
