Ceremonial First Post

Well. Here I am in the world of bloggers (Yay me, right?). Not sure that anyone will be interested in what I have to offer, but I do want a place to call "home" for the cards and other things that I have started to create.

I'm new at all this crafty stuff. Particularly at card-making. But I really dig it. I found that I was spending a small fortune at Hallmark and Papyrus to buy the kinds of cards I wanted for the people I cared about. I was just spending way, way too much moolah and thought to myself, "Self, you can probably do this! You have a crafty side!"

So once I moved to Californ-i-ay to be with my stud-muffin boyfriend (he's so gonna kill me when he reads that...ha! - OR he'll looove it!) I decided to look more into how to take on this crafty feat of making cards. I contacted one of my crafty friends back in my home state of Nevada and asked her, "Uhhh..hey...I wanna make cards. What do I do?" Of course she thought I was a bit silly, like, I should just know, y'know? But she gave me some great advice..."Have you looked into Stampin' Up?" I had no clue what or who they were...but my journey had just begun.

I'll be posting pics and stuff of some of my creations. This is fun for me...all this crafty crap. ;) I can't promise to post something everyday or anything like that. But I hope that this will spur on my creative-flow.

Now I just need to figure out how to work this place called the Blogosphere! Wish me luck...yikes!
