Way back in early October I set myself a challenge to mark World Card Making Day. I would try to design and make from scratch 24 cards and coordinating envelopes in 24 hours.

Thanks Well Written On A Tag
Isn't it funny how you can get really excited about a set of dies but then don't make the most of them. This has happened many times and I'm determined to revisit each and every set.

But it does mean I also have to accept the inevitable list of products that are to be retired. So now I've started ... VIEW POST

Then, over ... VIEW POST
