I Love Sketches by Tsunami Rose! Day 218

Thank you guys for all of your kind comments this past week. It is very encouraging to hear such nice feedback! I really appreciate it!

Time is flying by so fast. The year is almost done! I can't even believe it. This has been my most successful year so far and I thank you guys for you support! I'm so glad I started this blog, you all don't even know. I was feeling pretty defeated at the beginning of the year and started this blog to keep myself busy and keep my mind occupied on something other than the thought of being unemployed.

I must admit this blog and all the time it takes, it feels like a full time job. And I would love to make it my career. I have been confused in the past as to where my future should be. And this time that I have had to myself I've been able to see where I am supposed to be. I knew that I wanted to go into graphic design, and I've been working towards going into commercial graphic design. . .  but my style of graphic design doesn't seem to fit the conventional cookie shape.

I did not expect to even end up dreaming of designing my own scrapbook paper & elements even when I started this blog. I've had blogs before that weren't very successful, but when I fell in love with scrapbooking. . . .  I REALLY fell in love with scrapbooking. And it's all I've wanted to do ever since I discovered the Micheals scrapbook isle 3 years ago. All I wanted to do for the last 2 years is make cards.

I hope one day to be able to design and produce papers that everyone can enjoy and create even if they don't have a printer. I can't wait to branch out and live that dream of designing scrapbook paper for a living and being able to scrapbook every day all day if I wanted to. :)

So again, thank you so much for your support and for visiting my little corner of the internet.

I inked all the edges of this card in Vineyard Berry from CTMH. The sentiment is also from CTMH.

I embellished it with lace, and half pearls. The sentiment says "Just A Little Prayer. . . "

Hope you guys like it!!
