Actually I don't know if I'm truly lacking inspiration or just experiencing this overjustification effect that I was reading about last night. Since putting several items in a local craft mall my motivation to make new cards and things has taken a pretty sharp nosedive...I go to create and nothing happens. I just sit there looking at my newly organized card-making station and fuss with my scissors and whatnot and nothing comes to me. I can't even think of anyone to make a card for! Much less what it should look like. Look how clean my desk area is! Crafters know a craft room surface should never be that clean unless you haven't had a creativity induced mess making session in forever or you are dead or you are planning to take pics that don't showcase your messiness. Hey, if anyone wants to help me out and request a specific card, for yourself or someone you know that needs a card, please leave a comment and I'll see what I can do. Did I mention the price? Well, it's the best part: FREE!!! I'll even pay for the shipping to get the card to you and I won't sell your address to any but the best online marketers. You know the ones that send the really great catalogs... : ) Heehee...but seriously, it might really stir up my creativity and inspire me, so get your thinking caps on and help a girl out you lovely people!
I would really like to start sending cards to the seniors here in the Edmond congregation....how about some "thinking of you" or "just wanted to say hi" cards?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions Shandy! Those are great ideas...is there a more specific theme or anything that you are looking for? Sassy? Sewing? Gardening? Music? Or just pretty/masculine? I'll try to make up a variety this weekend and post pics so you can see if you like them and let me know. Love ya Sis!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I hadn't really thought of any themes or anything. I was just thinking about how much I love receiving letters/cards in the mail, and thought it might make their day! So, something cheerful or something they can keep around for a little bit, knowing someone is thinking of them.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your ideas!
