[@shelleyvanhouten27]

@@reallyrobinstamps you are so sweet! I’m in Florida until May, I left all my mixed media stuff at home. (Michigan). I followed Tim Holtz, Dina Wakley, and some others. Mostly, I just made art journals. It was good therapy. I wanted to get into making cards for others after I received Get Well Cards after a Surgery and Recovery (still) on my shoulder. The cards meant so much to me that I thought I would like to bless others as I had been blessed. 🥰 years ago I worked in a Scrapbooking store and taught a few classes in cardmaking. 😉I don’t have the gift of teaching like you do, but I DO love to play, and since retiring I give myself permission!😘😘
