My March 13 Newsletter featured my “socially distancing by crafting” theme as a result of my return from travel that resulted in “social distancing” and teleworking from home. It can be a challenge. However, I have found so much joy in having time to devote to my crafting.
While having time on my hands, I’ve cleaned and organized my craft space, I started a FB Challenge on my STAMPING FUSION group to post their projects to win FREE products during this period. What a great time to take advantage of the strong social network we have as crafters because social distancing does not mean “social isolation”! Get on your tablets, pads, and smartphones and connect with new groups to extend your network online to share and make new friends!
LOOKING FOR A PURPOSE? My newsletter features my “cards for smiles” program” should anyone need purpose and inspiration! To that end, my blog features cards created for the “Give a SMILE — one card at a time” program featuring the BONANZA BUDDIES and MAKE A SPLASH (Hostess) stamp sets. Scroll and find a LIVE YOUTUBE tutorial filmed earlier in the week that provides you all the tips and tricks! Thanks for stopping by and leave a comment!
