Farewell to Bear

 My first post in a long time.  It’s been a challenging couple years with illness and the burden of work, and I’m entering 2025 with the commitment to resuscitate my life.   I unearthed my craft room as part of this path.

I made three cards on my first day ‘back’.  This one made me cry and will go as a final gift to my cat whom we had to rehome recently.  I miss him every day and hope his new life is good.


My craft room is still missing some key components— we had a flood last year and my craft room was packed up in a rush.  The printer, silhouette, my Scot pal and stamping mat are amongst the missing items.  Luckily my Copics were safeguarded carefully.  Everything is in different order though.  I used to have my ribbon on special racks on the walk, but those came down in the Reno and now I have a giant bin of ribbon on to dig in.  I managed to cut my finger open fussy cutting and observe my vision is not what it used to lol!

As for this card, I think it may be the first time I inked up this stamp which I’ve had over 10 years!   My craft goal this year is to buy NO new stamp sets, paper or supplies except for adhesive and some copic refills, I have SO much stuff already waiting to be played with.

Image is LOTV.  I pulled out my precious Gina K pure luxury 80lb white cardstock for the image which is a delight to colour on.  DP in SU.
