My New Committment & Giveaway


I know I have been away from my blog for some time now. Just didn't have the ambition and energy. My depression, life, and illness got in the way. But I am feeling so much better. Thanks to everyone who has given support, especially to Elena for forwarding the positives in life and showing there is worse out there.
Today I am showing an atc I made while I got together with Saundra, Laura, and Raven. They are local friends who enjoy the same interests as I do and we get together whenever time and our lives allow. We had so much fun. Although it was just a few hours, the amount of fun and sharing outweighed the time element. I'm always surprised at what I learn from them. I, also, worked on some soldering projects, but not completed yet, so will show another time.
I've started a new part-time job and really enjoying it. Have lots to learn there and refresh on my mind's personal filing cabinet of do's and don'ts.
To start my committment of staying on target with my blog entries, I am offering the gift of my atc showing to day. Anyone who comments on my blog will be entered into a random drawing for the card. It's not much, but my big heart and the love of friends and art go with it.
Hope to see your comment sometime in the next couple of days. The winner will be selected on Sunday, February 22 at noon, Pacific Standard Time. Enjoy, share, and have fun creating.

JJ, your card is great. I love Asian theme cards. I am glad you are feeling better.

I don't think I would do too well with a blog, couldn't keep with it daily.
