In the past year and a half that I've been roaming blogland, I've come to realize that most of us have our trials and some of us like to know that we're not alone as we experience them. Since May 2010 I've come to discover that I have a hereditary illness that most won't speak of, my five year old daughter has celiac disease, and my son, well, the amount of free community support we receive is indicative of something as of yet unnamed. For the past three months our household focus has been my son as we continue to struggle to get structure, routine, and organization into a typically chaotic existence. If you've seen HGTV's new show 'Consumed', then you can safely picture what fourteen years of living in one house with two individuals who prefer to repurpose something rather than toss it has done to my home. It is actually quite funny as I'm learning to let go and donate items and my hubby is saying "but, but...we could...". Cardmaking has been extremely therapeutic - although my craftroom could use de-cluttering and totally stresses me out as I purge the rest of the house!
This week's challenge at Paper Sundaes is a favorite one - 'Anything Goes'! So I've decided to use my copic markers and try to colour on kraft cardstock.
I wanted to focus attention on the stitching so the rest of the card simply lacks embellishment. I continued the stitching on the inside of the card.
Thank you for looking and all your support! I look forward to seeing your 'Anything Goes' creation!
