Tried something new and made some desktop calendars. I started by embossing metal foil which I then painted with alcohol inks. Once dry I cut and scored card stock and assembled the pieces. Shout out to Debbie Simko at graciousbeegreetings.etsy.com for the printed calendars - quality product, good service and reasonable pricing.

This year's holiday cards are done and in the mail. I made 28 using 6 different designs. Yes, they could have been decorated much more elaborately, but that's time consuming and I'm rather pleased with the clean, simple look they have without all the extras. Next up, finish making the mini calendars I started before shifting gears to these cards.

A few of my friends expressed interest in a private Facebook group if I started one so I did. I thoroughly enjoy encouraging and supporting others, and receiving the same in return is icing on the cake! These ladies inspired me to pull out my yarn bag which I hadn't touched in 3-8 years. In it I found an item I'd played around with in order to get used to crochet again. I had no idea what to do with it when I realized by adding more to it, it could be a neck warmer. Surprisingly, I remembered what to do and immediately started back up, finishing the scarf while listening to an audio book yesterday morning. I'm so tickled by this, and hope that others are finding the group as beneficial as I am!
