First Post - Welcome

Hi and Welcome to my first post.  I'm really excited to have created this blog.  Its all about me and my crafting.

How I came up with my Name:

I love to make cards but very rarely give out cards.  My hubby will pick out the cards from my stash when he's wrapping the gifts.  And I SO love him for that.  haha

I love to quilt but hate to sew.  Now how does that work, hmmm.  Not sure but that's me.  :)

I love to give gifts and Really Love to get gifts.


I'm reading a book about blogging that I won from Blogs by Heather.  So stayed tuned for changes to my blog as I grow.


Hope you enjoy and come back for more.

Vicky
