~To Cheer You~
April 9th, 2018 by Holly McMillen
Missed you all last week. I caught a bug; second of the year! Feeling much better. Just in time to host a late Easter dinner for the family. Just a couple years ago, our family consisted of just the six of us. We’ve grown to twelve with another on the way! Makes my heart happy.
I’m going to make a confession. This card I’m going to share is NOT the original idea for today’s post. You know the old saying, “measure twice, cut once”? Yeah, well I did a really cool project using dies that are not in the store.
I’ve been doing inventory in my studio for the last month and it seems like just when I finish, it’s time to start again. I do thank my son, Zeke, for helping me. We’re not done! 🙂

This card represents all the drama I’ve been experiencing as of late. Sometimes it is so relaxing and soothing to just get lost in a card or project. That’s why they call it therapy!
