Doing Something Creative & FUN!

I am having so much FUN making cards!  I went to a free card making class at the San Rafael Public Library a few weeks ago.  It has inspired me to craft again.  I have always loved crafts - clay, soft sculpture, drawing, painting, crocheting, knitting, collage, beading, jewelry making, sewing and now card making!  I have been an art teacher for 2-6 year olds and always loved watching their process and enjoyed playing with all the art materials.  I have collected alot of FUN materials I can use for card making.  I have beautiful papers, glitter glue, 3-D stickers, colorful blank cards, markers, scissors that cut decorative edges, flowers, pom poms, feathers, it goes on and on!  And I am gathering rubber stamps from Michaels, Ben Franklin Crafts and have found some wonderful $1 rubber stamps at The Dollar Tree!  I am enjoying layering and collaging images and using sparkly glue to decorate.  The more colorful the better.  It really makes me happy!   And I love making matching envelopes!  It has also been alot of FUN to just send one of these cards to a friend or family member....JUST BECAUSE!

What a FUN activity to do on a rainy day while listening to my favorite CDs.  Thank you to the free class at the library that reinspired me to craft again!
