Constructive Distractions

Yesterday I finally pulled out the sewing machine and got busy working on those projects that have been on the back burner.  (You know, the ones I was hoping to be more motivated to do a few weeks ago!)  I got most of them done, and all of them started, but then I got distracted.  No Surprise there, but it was a constructive distraction.  I had some cards that I needed to make, 1 for a wedding, some thank yous and 1 just 'how ya doing?'  Well, the sewing machine inspired me and I finished those up.  Here are my favorites:

They were really fun to make, and they came together quicker than I expected - I guess I was feeling inspired.  Now to make little enveloped to go with them and get them in the mail.
