handmade card for niece

This was fun. For my niece's birthday, instead of buying a card I decided to make one using recycled cardboard and cereal box, origami papers and silliness. I was happy with the 3d pop-up look of the cardboard layers.
scored a whole bunch of hello kitty charms at Salvation Army..and incorporated some which made it into a gift/card.

Example of why it takes me forever to do 'simple' things.
Entranced by the lintbin while doing laundry. it becomes so many things.....and the light changes and time goes by





also like to warm myself holding clothes and towels hot out from the dryer...we're trying to save a bit on heat and my tropical blood is hating it. Hot ginger tea coming up to warm my hands and insides while I paint.
