I agree sometimes I just never have enough time for anything, but the funny thing is I never intended to start scrapbooking but when I am a stay at home mom, I wanted to find something I could do to bring in some extra income, so I looked on Ebay and happened to run across the tear bears (actually I was looking for bear clothes for my daughter b/c I did not want to make anymore, lol) and I thought they were absolutly adorable, so I did not research on them and ordered some paper and it took me a few attempts before I got them down to the point I have them (probably about a month) and then I noticed people using them on ebay on scrapbook layouts and knew I could do them to, so I went out and invested a lot of money and time into products and pages and hoped to start selling them on ebay.... well they definetly took off and I started get special request and whole book orders that I stopped listing them on ebay until I caught up on all of those, now I am finsihing my 4 kids scrapbooks and I am doing another ladies grandsons first year book so I am not on ebay right at this minute but plan to very soon with my own account only dedicated to scrapbooking

I do have to agree the tear bears are very cute!!!

I have worked with mullberry paper, but its been awhile. It just didn't look like mullberry.
They do get a lot of money for premade pages on ebay! I would have never guessed it.

yes they do, and the right people get ALOT of money for them, I am just happy when they sell but I have seen some of them go for ridiculous amoutns of money, the most any of mine have went for was just over $40, which I am thrilled about

Nice work on the scrap pages

My oldest daughter want to get into scrapping. I may buy her a kit when money is in again

My latest project, felted chicken pins:

I'm going to donate one to the silent auction at the Cocke County Poultry Show and see if anyone likes them...

Felting isn't easy, but I really enjoy it. I'd be faster at making my pins, but I get more elaborate on each one!

I really like those. I hope the one you donate does well. Then maybe there will be a demand for them and you can earn a little on the side.

Your pins are really cute

Thanks Farmer Kitty & Jen4!

The black one on the upper right is mine. I've worn it quite a bit. They are very light, so even the big ones don't pull the fabric they're pinned to.

The bird on the upper left is actually a small 3-D sculpture. I'm thinking of giving it a duck bill, since it doesn't look very quail-like.

I sure like making these little guys. Hard to make them small. I haven't bled on any of them, but that's only because I stopped to get a band-aid
