It’s been a little while since I’ve posted anything here on my blog. I go through “busy periods” where it seems like I have a bunch of card needs with short deadlines, and I actually start to feel stressed about getting everything done. I also get caught up trying to “out-do” my previous projects which can tend to get very time consuming and expensive. I really do enjoy pushing myself to try new techniques and to make cards/projects with interesting twists, but that also adds to the stress. Strange, I know, since this is supposed to be a hobby!
This past month has been a “slow period” with very little that needed to be done. Luckily, my mojo stuck around, and I found myself in my craft room a lot. I decided to pull out some stamp sets that I have had for a while but have not had time to play with yet. I forced myself to be “ok” with creating some simpler card designs. And I must say, I have thoroughly enjoyed this past month of “low key” card making. Very relaxed, very fun, and very productive.
I guess the problem is that I had also decided to take take a little break from blogging so now I have a lot of catching up to do! I hope to start posting again soon….
Thanks for checking out my post!
I can understand the need to take a break occasionally. I have been in that situation as well from time to time. After all, you should have a vacation and just work with more relaxing designing.
