As I loaded my YouTube Watch Later list this morning, I noticed that two of the videos are titled #WorkInProgressWednesday. I expected them to be related, but they're not. I have a personal "rule" that if two unrelated people tell me to do something, that's my sign that I'm really supposed to do it. Last week I spent some time with a friend (masked, and mostly six feet apart). One of the things we discussed is having too much pretty paper, and as we made plans for another visit, she said, "We'll have some of that paper used up and can share our projects." Lisa My Eclectic Life challenged us at the end of July to #UseThatPreciousStuff over the next few months. That just happens to be what's on my work table this week:
This is what's left of the first designer series paper "stack" (48 pieces of double-sided paper!) I bought, Sweet Pea (2010 Occasions mini catalog). Some of it is "precious", including the last three sheets of Taken with Teal card stock it coordinates with. Some of it (notice all the pink?) qualifies more for #NoPaperLeftBehind (started by Daniella Hayes) because I don't like it and found it harder to use. Both are being made into cards - here are some of the first ones, using the bigger pieces of paper:
And, two I already mailed away:
So I'm keeping up pretty well with #createveryday2020 and #keeponmaking this week. There are three more cards in progress at the end of the work table, but just now it's cat-lap time. Unlike people telling me to do something, it only takes one cat!
