i realized something this month, while i was working on the gdt gig for the jbs blog and while i was working on the gdt projects that you see here that i created for my friend tricia at cocoa daisy.
kits. i miss them. i miss putting together my monthly kits & then using them.
i definitely don't miss the time and energy it took me to kit, market, process payments, market, ship, order, organize, market and plan them. it took alot of work! which i loved {and hated} at the same time on some days. but the beautiful bag of new paper goodies? yes. that i definitely still miss. it's just fun for me to take a pile of goodies and make them into something i adore. i really, really love that.
and i love this boy.
so to get to work with a kit again was a blast. and i'm a lover of orange and brown. and i'm a lover of the fact that i sat inside our back window {and got a pic of the moment!} the other day and saw this girl showing & telling her baby brother how the alphabet works when the letters come together.
plus, making your own embellishments while listening to classic rock songs while your children are making their bestie friends birthday cards isn't bad either.
happy wednesday!
xo
ps : thanks tricia!
Aw, girl. I totally get this post. I could've written it myself. I totally don't miss all the work that went into It Kit but I SO desperately miss the coming together of it all and enjoying the mix and creating with it. *sigh* Have a happy Wednesday...
