Hope

Although starting a cardmaking blog as a New Year's resolution is hardly a novel idea, I'm hopeful that it's an idea I can actually make good on in 2021!

As I move into 2021, I'll try to post my cards not only on Instagram (see me there @escards) and Facebook (you can friend me there, I'm Essie Cards), but also here.  When I have some techniques to show you, I may really go out on a limb and make a little youtube video.  Just because it's a good year to try new things, to start over, and to stretch our way into whatever our brave new world will look like.

That overwhelming feeling--of hopefulness--has made its presence known in the cards I've been making in the last week.  I've been playing with cards to send my friends and family in the new year that are all about hope and brighter tomorrows.  Here are three, all using the December 2020 Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit*, which is, as ever, unique, beautiful, and timely.  I hope you enjoy them.  

I hope you'll drop by again--it will help to keep me honest, so that I can keep my little New Year's resolution! 

Thanks for visiting!
