Self Taught Papercrafters

I've been scrapbooking and making cards actively since 2003; before I even know that there was such a thing as scrapbooking (papercrafting). I am a self taught scrapbooker/card maker. Even though it's been over 10 years since I purchased my first paper pack for set of stickers, I'm still behind with the scrapbooking trends. I go to crops and visit scrapbooking social sites and belong to several groups. I feel so intimidated. I started Royal Scrap Club in 2003 after finishing embellished Sunday School folders for my pre school aged students. I feel so behind. I have so many stamps and inks. But what the heck do I do with them. Now, I'm behind on something else... The Julie Nutting Prima Paper Dolls. I will I ever get caught up!!!!!!!

Hey, as I type this mini rant... I have an idea. I'm going to reach out into my papercrafting circle and find some experienced scrapbooker/card makers and have a Boot Camp... Humm, this is going to be good.

I saw that there was a bid on a new Pink Journey Cricut Expression Bundle that was about to end and the price was like 40 bucks. I was like; No way. The Bundle included 3 cartridges; one of which was the Pink Journey Champagne Rose Solution cartridge. So, I bid $56 and won the bid. That was such a great deal simply because the Pink Journey cartridge sells for about that; at least on eBay.

To God Be the glory for the things he has done. I give him praise for healing me and for the courage and hope that i received from my mom and my grandmother. Yes, Lord we need a cure. My prayers and ...
