Hoarding supplies=joy in creating
I love to make anything out of paper.
I developed my paper crafting hobby when I was 20. Stamping was my first love. I made cards. I decorated gift bags. Every holiday was a handmade card holiday. I went nuts one Christmas and stamped out the most DETAILED Santa scene ever.
And I loved doing it.
The stamps currently fill a huge container.
I got into scrapbooking at age 23. That has possibly been my longest running hobby, lasting until six years ago. Scrapbooking stores made a lot off me back in the day! And I still have a lot of those supplies. Which brings me to my current creations-mini albums!
When you've saved enough paper and embellishments, you can do things like this to try and sell them. :)
I think I enjoy doing this so much because it's like therapy. And it's fun. You can create without rules-except for the self-imposed ones of disdain for crappy artistic efforts. You can puncture things, scribble, paint, draw...It's all good.
What's the backing, you ask? Cardboard. Yes, cardboard.
