Getting Caught Up

I just realized that when I am operating on Craft Overload, I need to download somehow.  So many ideas, thoughts, things to share, pictures, how to's.  Until I take the time to dispense, I'll continue to become even more bogged down--like a snow ball rolling down a hill gathering, running over everything in it's way until it reaches the bottom.  So I'm thinking that posting on the blog will relieve this creative tension.

My intention is that this blog will be my place to gather pictures of things I've made or in the process of making, instructions, links to other blogs, videos.  For all the different things that I do, I'm still a bit unorganized about it all.  Hopefully this will be my new way of getting it all together & be able to refer people to a post for a recipe, technique.  I've spent who-knows-how-many hours hopping around cardmaker/stamper/watercolor/paper crafting/sewing/lettering/cooking/... blogs that have contributed to my OVERLOAD!  So I'll see how I do.

Let's start with a quote:
IF WE DO NOT FEEL GRATEFUL FOR WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE,
WHAT MAKES US THINK WE'D BE HAPPY WITH MORE?

Grateful is a state of mind, a way of living, of being.  It changes one's perspective.  One of my goals is to be in a constant state of grateful.
