#the100dayproject : handmade card 84/100-2 : love you
Posted by Kerry Wills on
i know. i know. it's crazy - it seems like two months away is so far away, but i swear it'll be here faster than we know it. and also, a good love themed card can always be good to have on hand. right? right. [and also, i make the rules.]

#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.

i decided to make a mini card for my favorite human to wake up to. a few years ago i made him a mini card everyday for the entire year. i have them all saved in our w2 scrapbook and it's been a minute since i made him one. plus, one of the sentiments on a newer stamp set just spoke to me.

day 16 : self care
this is a tricky one for me to share, because in all transparency, i'm not always so great at the self care portion of life.
i create because it makes me happy. it also stresses me out and drives me crazy, but i love it with every ounce of my being. when i'm not creating for business i'm creating for me, in one way or another.
