All you can do with it craftwise is greeting cards and scrapbook pages, am I right?

Not so much.

Even if you would never send a birthday greeting or a thank-you note that wasn’t digital, and you’re quite happy having your 237,519 photos sitting in the cloud, you live someplace, yes? A house, apartment, dorm room…or you know someone who lives in senior housing or a nursing home.

Are you content with bare walls and bare surfaces or do you wish you could embellish those walls and surfaces just a tad in a way that is personal yet inexpensive? Maybe there’s a child in your life whose space could use some freshening up. How about a gift for someone who lives in less-than-ideal surroundings, a gift for no other reason than to brighten their day and their space?

And I translated it into this fun & fast little thing made with paper:

So look around you for ideas–they don’t even need to be square or rectangular–and then head to my shop for some great paper, dies, embossing folders, stamps, and inks to brighten up your neck of the woods!
