Has this ever happened to you....?

You're a cardmaker. You make cards almost every day and several on the weekends. You have boxes of cards that you have made and you send them out for birthdays and hellos and whatnot. And then a special occasion comes up - and you don't have a card! How can that be?? Doris sent me a RAK - - some Hanna Stamps stamp cleaning stuff and some card scents. I have tried neither before and the thought and the gift were very much appreciated. So I go to send her a thank-you card - - do you think I have one? No! A simple thank-you amongst the 100 cards I have in my stash? Madness. And Doris if you're reading this: your thank-you still hasn't gone out. But it will....you mark my words, it will!!

Anyway - so new goal: start making at least one card for each odd occasion that may come up and you will find yourself unprepared for - graduation, anniversary, sympathy. Thank-you is not the random odd occasion, I am still shaking my head on that one. But anyway - baby shower, that's one. So here's a little bebe shower card and for a limited time only: the return of the umbrella!!!

Thanks for stopping in - and have a wonderful day!

It's pretty funny you didn't have a thank-you card! Your baby shower card is totally cute!

I sent you a PM on the PTI forum. It's good news!

What? No thank you card! And you call yourself a cardmaker? LOL You're going to have to start keeping an inventory sheet. Then when a certain type of card gets low, that's what you work on next.
Love the umbrella comeback! That card is sooo cute.

LOL I completely understand. You are the best at thank yous so I got concerned that the package didn't get to you. Shipping liquid can be risky. Or do I just send you things to get my hands on your super cool cards? *mwhahahhaha*

I am so glad the umbrella is back, I love it.
