The good, the bad and the lucky

Joann Fabrics near work is closing, they lost their lease and are selling to the bare walls. This is great for a bargain craft shopper like me but it is bad for my pocketbook. I raised eyebrows with the basket full of stuff I bought today at lunch. I'm so happy and so broke -- everyone gets crafts for Christmas!

I have my first commission for cards and I figured out how to package cards so they don't get soiled from people handling them and I can price them without touching them. Last Christmas my sister gave me a vacuum sealer for the kitchen. It was the cheapy kind from Walgreens. I've had very little luck with it when it comes to food. Well it works GREAT for cards. I don't use the vacuum but I do use the sealer. It's great.

I have hundreds of ideas now. If only I could find hundreds of hours to stamp. Think I'll go get started now.
