Sometimes I do a bit of sorting or organizing. Other times I do a bit of crafting. It makes me happy to spend some time up there, even if it is less time, or things are not &#8220;perfect&#8221;. It is better then never getting up there at all, as circumstances will never be perfect!<\/p>\n<p>Another thing that I am doing is just jumping in and making some cards. I really love to come up with nice designs, and then crank out a lot of the same card for gifts etc. But it takes me a ton of time to come up with a really good design, so often I do not end up with an actual product for quite some time. So I&#8217;m trying a new approach. I&#8217;m either blatantly CASEing (\u201cCopy and Share Everything.\u201d), or just lowering my standards a bit. And the final thing&#8230;. I&#8217;m actually mailing a lot of the cards!!! What a concept!<\/p>\n<p>So here are two more results, significantly less than perfect in my eyes, but I already have the envelopes addressed, so hopefully they will make the recipients happy!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/euler357\/8544377881\/\" title=\"most beautiful day by euler357, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8384\/8544377881_febdcb997f.jpg\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" alt=\"most beautiful day\"><\/a><br \/>\nI wanted to use my new paper from PTI, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.papertreyink.com\/paper\/dearest-jane-patterned-paper-8-1\/2-x11-36-sheets\/\"> Dearest Jane<\/a> . I do like book print, but I cannot bring myself to cut up actual old books!! Anyway, I don&#8217;t think either way that I used it turned out great, but that&#8217;s life!<\/p>\n<p>And here is the second one.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/euler357\/8544377955\/\" title=\"grateful by euler357, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8096\/8544377955_cb626f0a05.jpg\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" alt=\"grateful\"><\/a><br \/>\nAdditionally I need to work on my photography set up. (The colors in these photos are not totally accurate.) But again, if I waited to blog till my photos were great, then it would not happen either!<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, here is an example of the state of my craft room&#8230;. I KNEW I had a bag of buttons to match the base paper color, and I spent about 10 minutes searching for them. Finally decided to use the ribbon, and then found the buttons right after I sealed the envelopes!!
