Last week, I finished creating mini versions of the state corkboard in my shop. Above is a sample of the MA board. Why did I make them? Well, I contributed them to Indie Craft Sampler, an awesome subscription box of craft samples. I cannot wait to review one when I receive mine next month. I hand drew and cut each of the 50 states which I then wrapped.

The samples are more rustic than my usual chalkboards, which I think go well with the business cards and wrapping. They're a little chunkier and have lines running through them. Perfect to tape to your wall or add to a beautifully wrapped gift.

I'm not really sure what I want to write here, but I felt compelled to write nevertheless. I just came back from a walk with Tater and boy was it beautiful. The humidity has died down for the time being and I can actually enjoy the sunny and warm weather.

I had written the above paragraph the other week. Boy, I've wanted to write more here and then once I open up my post editor the words just don't flow out.

I passed my license test for my day job last Friday. That's taken a load off my mind and I have felt more free to create and unpack in our new place. I have been enjoying taking my time and finding a place for everything. I've also decided to do more with my shop again. Neeka from Indie Craft Sampler had written and asked if I would consider contributing item(s) from my shop and I decided that I would. I'm looking forwarding to sharing with you all what I will be contributing. They are mini versions of something from my shop (and so cute!). I will be a contributor for October. If you're interested in signing up, go here. I can't wait to get my first box and see what other fabulous contributors have included.
