standing + crafting + munching away ( cleaning hands inbetween 😂 )
Hi my name is Char, short for Charlotte, and I'm a 71 (almost 72) y.o. retiree, mom, grandma and beginning crafter who lives in Delaware.
I've been "studying" crafting (cards and mini albums) for several years now (this means watching lots of YT videos and collecting supplies for that "start" day, which seems to be starting now...). Seriously, though, I have collected a ridiculous amounts of stamps, dies and PAPER! I actually had a plan in mind when I got most of this stuff - retirement. Well retirement happened in April and I'm still afraid of just digging in!
The other distraction that I fell in love with recently is AI image generation and what I hope / plan to do is start creating my own digital papers. I have all of the necessary tools except for faith! But I'll get there.
Now, however, I have grandchildren in college and I want to do memory books for them to fill with their photos and general memorabilia and I have one of Francés' books that I plan to use for just this purpose. Double Waterfall Folio.
Anyway, that's probably way more than you wanted to know but thanks for reading!
Take care ... Char


Drop a picture of your fur babies! I would love to see them all! This is Ricky, he's a sweetie pie. He's my Mother-in-laws "brother" she likes to say *lol
Question for the Community...I have a lot of Kraft cardstock needing to be used. Was thinking to make a wedding album using mostly B&W, with gold and silver foil too. But I am on the fence as to how this might look. Has anyone ever made a Kraft Wedding album? Just looking for feedback. Thanks!
