I have been playing in the studio with Valentine cards I have made in years past. Some of them went into the shredder yesterday. Some just weren't worthy to keep however I had kept them 5 years or more.
I was going to call in sick today from work and stay home and made new cards and just play in the studio then I thought about a trip I'm trying to save money for so got ready and went into work like a good girl. LOL ( or good senior lady)
This is one of my all time favorite cards I made once.
I had bought the big B to make my sister Becky a card but this what I came up with for the big B .
This is hanging from a make do chandelier over my work table, I have chains and all kinds of items I like to look at while working in the studio, It's a total wreck now because I am packing up items to sell at the Indoor Garage Sale this Sunday at The the Holiday Inn convention center Feb 8th 1 -4 Pm.
I would like to take a lot of paper items I have for card making but you just never know what people will buy. Last year I thought I took a bunch of my vintage odds and ends and junk and it sold like hot cakes LOL
This is my little romantic gal with her jeweled crown on I Like this card a lot also, she was safe from the shredder .
I had to play with the old vintage Bingo cards also, this avoided the shredder also. I always like making cards from vintage papers and items and I was invited to join in a card group,then realized they only wanted cards made with Tim Holtz design in their click so I was not ask back Boo Hoo not for me for those gals LOL I love Tim Holtz items but they are very expensive to collect
The little paper dolls was in a magazine I use to collect and loved it and not being published anymore, what was the name of that magazine ? she always had a set of paper dolls in each issue, was it Home Companion ?
Linky parties i'm in
Well I better get to work and make some mad money to spend foolishly

You just never know what other people will like. Most times it something you would not think would sell. Good luck with your sale.
