{brick wall} blessings

if nothing else, i think that my run-in with the brick wall yesterday may have knocked some much needed sense into me.  i tend to roam around in many different directions at once, and sometimes a sturdy road block is exactly what i need as motivation to focus and make some overdue decisions.  for example, my original ACEO cards have been available in my etsy shop for so long that even the spiders have moved on to make new cobwebs somewhere else.  so, i've pulled out the originals and made some prints to create note card sets.  and it's very possible that the spiders may move back in, but in the meantime, i'm reminded that blessings can even be seen in brick walls.  and speaking of blessings....

i received these cute, cute tags in the mail yesterday from my sweet friend jes as a result of winning her give-away!   each one of these tags has been hand-stamped, with sparkly hearts glued on, and adorned with fun, colorful ribbons!  i absolutely love these, jes...thank you so much!
