#the100dayproject : handmade card 70/100 : never give up
Posted by Kerry Wills on
but in all seriousness, i couldn't do what i do without the help of this guy. during show season he's right there with me, doing all the heavy lifting and talking me up to anyone and everyone. he's great at feedback and at suggesting ideas for things i would never think of and i love when he keeps me company in the craft castle. he encourages me to spend far too much money on new supplies ["because you need them, obviously" is one of his go-to lines] and he's one of the most incredible humans i've ever met. so it's well deserved that he earns employee of the month. love you babe!
okay...onto the card for today! the inspiration wheel landed on heat embossing and sometimes that intimidates me. however, i decided to try a few different things.

those feelings sparked some positive ideas and inspiration for today's card. the wheel landed on 'one layer' and i have a new stamp set that i've been itching to get out of the packaging. [side note on new products - there are going to be a plethora of new ideas and products because i went *slightly* overboard supporting small crafty businesses this weekend!]

november brings on all kinda of feels for me - i'm not one to typically set up my christmas display and decor quite yet [i usually wait until the weekend after thanksgiving] but i do like to participate in 30 days of gratitude. positivelypresent is hosting a great series of prompts on her instagram, and it's what i'll be following along with this year.

today was the longest day in the history of ever! whew! i'm so happy that work is over and a little relieved that today's spin on the inspiration wheel landed on a 1-layer card. my energy is seriously lacking!
in addition to my energy lacking, my mojo isn't 100% and i'm not quite sure why, so while i finished today's card, it's not my best work ever. however, i'm still happy that i completed it and that i was able to pull out some new supplies from concord and 9th.
