Card

I’ve taken up yet another craft.

So, almost a month ago this happened:

Yes, I am an Elder Millenial who has embraced TikTok. You should follow me for my videos, especially the Golden Girl re-enactments.

So, I LOVE my Cricut Joy (this is not a paid advertisement, I just love my toy so much I need to squeal about it for a moment!). I spent years wanting a Cricut, but couldn’t bring myself to buy one because they’re pricey and I couldn’t figure out what I would make enough of that would justify buying one. The Joy is tiny (which automatically ups its cuteness factor), and it lets me make all the greeting cards I want.

I haven’t yet decided what to do with the mountain of cards I currently have sitting on my dining room table…but I have ideas.

Idea #1

-Card of the Day: Basically, I make a handful of a specific card each day and put them up for sale. When they’re gone, they’re gone.

Idea #2

-Emergency Card Pack: These would be packs that, when someone has forgotten to get a card for an even (birthday, wedding, funeral, etc…) they can just pull from the pack, instead of doing a last minute trip to the store. I admit, this idea has been inspired by my ADHD brain constantly forgetting to get cards until the very last minute. Running to WalMart on Sunday afternoon because I forgot to buy a card is one of my personal nightmares.

Thoughts? Interest? I’m not convinced that either of these are terrible ideas, but am open to input from you, my readers.

Until tomorrow, unless Groot does something ridiculously cute between now and then and I feel the need to show her off. Speaking of Groot, here’s an adorable video of her from a few months ago when we were trying to get her ready to go out in the cold, deep snow:

That weird breathy sound is me laughing at my poor baby’s distress.
