Before....
After....
I threw away 4 LARGE garbage bags (we had to make a trip to the garbage dump because of me), took 1 1/2 trunk loads to the local thrift store (maybe about 200 magazines involved plus lots more stuff), and reduced totes in the closet by 3 large ones. I reorganized and now know what is in the closet and totes. Still can do more and will later.
I was challenged on an FB page by a fellow Fun Stampers Journey coach to make a Valentine-themed card. Well, that was easy! I even did some stencil work on the red base layer and oodles more!
The text is actually wood which I colored with Silver Silk (a liquid ink) then glazed with a product similar to Crystal Lacquer then added fine glitter. What a fun card! Yes, I'm proud of it. If you want to know more about the products contact me.
Now please head over to the Stamping Ground and continue on your tour! Maybe we'll cross paths somewhere along the way! (Strange but the majority of my hits today are from South Korea....)

What a fun card. Given me some lovely ideas.
And wow what a transformation. Hard work, but looks like we'll worth it.
Have a great week.

Hi, Carol, great job on your closet reorganization & weeding project! The card is beautiful -- nice design and tons of visual interest. Happy WOYWW from Laura #45
Hello - a lovely card. Well done on your sorting and reorganising. Anne x #32
Wow! Good job on getting the closet cleared out. We have lots of nooks and crannies in our house that need to be cleared out (especially if we end up moving in the next couple of months). Great Valentine's card, love that glittery/sparkly greeting on it. PJ #57
Well done to you for actually throwing stuff out.
I'm still clearing and sorting three weeks in to the new year and getting fed up with it

South Korea!! Well, there's no explaining the where! glad you're taking time to heal and super impressed that you've tackled some space 'issues' in the closet.....I've got loads of magazines too, I must follow your brave, intrepid and feel good move! Love the card, never thought to do that to the wooden words, no wonder you're pleased!
Way to go Carol. Congratulations on your purging. Luv the card, as always.

Wow - that was a lot of cleaning/decluttering!
Glad you're taking it easy on that ankle. Start off slow and easy.
