Welcome

Thanksgiving passed in a flash! I was glad to be able to take advantage of some much needed time with family and friends, and also catch up on some crafting. Instead of spending Friday in a crowded mall or shopping complex, I spent time creating holiday gifts for the special people in my life. Crafting can help eliminate some of the stress of the holidays and will even give you a great end result - gifts or cards for the special people in your life.

Happy Crafting!

scrapbooking tip
It's not too late to whip out greeting cards for the holidays to send to the people on your list. Use the "assembly line" technique to create multiple copies of the same card. Enlist the help of family to complete the task in even less time.
