Crafting Vicky

I finally KICKED my butt and got some of my calendars from the JB5 process where I had done 24 backings finished (well the front part anyway).  And I made a video out of it to share with you.  This time however it's not a fast forward one.... it's one where I actually speak throughout.... So LONG (warning you in advance). Pretty happy 6 done 18 more to go?!? YIKES when will that be done .....anyway.... If I want to have a chance to put the calendars in my Etsy store I need to get going.... plus it's something to keep me busy and hopefully feeling worthy of SOMETHING.... Here's the video that I made if you don't mind hearing me for a long time.... (you can put the speed at double on Youtube btw if you want to hear me in speed version). and here are the pictures of what I did. All the calendars used calendars from here . For this 1st October one the image is from Birdy Brown it was a freebie called Gnome boy fall and unfortunately the store is closed now :(...
