December and January cards

snowman cards surrounded by craft supplies

My December holiday cards this year featured a stamp set I bought a few years ago and didn’t use: It’s called Merry Beachy Christmas and features Santa in a tropical setting. I used blue and yellowish inks to “paint” the…

Handmade cards for November

a brown card with a stamped floral back ground and a die cut 'hello' on the front

I rarely craft during the summer because when the weather is warm and the sun is shining I’d rather be outside reading in my hammock or screaming at my garden. Now that we are firmly back into the miserable months…

March cards

display of handmade cards with a nature theme.

For my March card swap, I continued with February’s collage theme but went more nature-y. I used to watch Youtube videos from card creators and their finished products are gorgeous and very well assembled. But they also all seem to…

2023 Valentine cards

three valentine cards: each one has a front made of torn pages from old books, and leftover cardstock

For a few reasons I hadn’t felt much like crafting for months. I bought the cutest Halloween dies, colored and cut a bunch of bats which ended up tucked away in an envelope for next year. I bought even cuter…

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
