Happy New Year!

2009 begins.......



Of course I have been thinking of resolutions....... yes, weight, better habits, but mainly of stamping and scrapping. I did very, very little scrapbooking in 2008. Best of intentions, but no follow-through. 2009 WILL be different!



I pledge to stamp more for ME in 2009. That probably sounds funny-- you all know how much I do stamp! It seemed to me, though, that every time an exciting design sparked in my brain, it would have to wait until my "need-to-do" stamping got done. With better organization and not so much procrastination (hey, it is the New Year, I am supposed to dream BIG!), that should not happen so much.



Lastly, I pledge to stamp more for others. Friends and others from my church who are deployed. Friends who are not feeling their best, or going through a rough patch. Cards for friends with whom I have lost touch. Cards to say "thank you"-- for amazing special music at church. for providing a shoulder for me to lean on, for doing something nice for one of the kids. What I enjoy most about stamping is knowing I have tucked in a little love into every envelope. I need to do that more often!



What are your stamping resolutions for 2009?

  2. Julia,
    This looks interesting--maybe a way to touch base through all this subbing! Happy New Year, and I too intend to stamp in a more meaningful and fulfilling effort this year! For fun and fulfillment!!
