CASE-ing Tuesday 180: New Year’s Resolutions

Happy New Year!  Did you make any resolutions?  It seems every year  all pledge to lose weight, get into shape, and  spend less time on Facebook.  And while that’s all fine and good – I mean, those are my goals, too! – why not also include a promise to be more creative?  To really carve out a bit of time for you to include being creative into your new self-care plan?  Being creative isn’t just fun; it lead to a deeper understanding and empathy towards others.  In other words…it’s good for you!

Today’s card features the Crafting Forever Stamp Set…and it’s perfect for reminding ourselves to “Do Something Creative Every Day!”  Need ideas on how to add creativity to your day?  Check out my calendar of events and let me know which one you’d like to add!

Want to play along with the CASE-ing Tuesday group?   Introducing weekly Card Sketches!
