One day last week I went back to work after a quick lunch and my computer had decided to do a long detailed update and I was locked out. Soooooo. What is a girl to do, standing there amongst all the rubber stamp supplies?
OH. She could most certainly dig out the most recent gifting of unused supplies (papers, stamps, extras) from a friend and see what card jumped out of the mix.
It was coffee. Coffee jumped out. This fun coffee cup rubber stamp set was just the thing. Add some fun papers, a bit of this and that, and 14 time for coffee with friends cards are now drying on my desk.

Not that they were all finished that first day. It took a few more chunks of time, but once the mess is out on the table and the idea has a plan, rubber stamped cards are just a few short work sessions away. I worked on them a little bit both days of the weekend, finally finishing them up in time to make dinner on Sunday.
How about you? What do you do when the computer locks you out or you have a few free hours? Any favorite hobbies? We could get coffee!

I have various hobbies – in the summer I spend my time in my overgrown garden trimming and pruning while taking photos of wildlife. In the winter I doodle, play with clay and make birds nests. Your cards are amazing, Angie. You should sell them to Hallmark.

Thank you for your kind words, Eleanor! I do love making cards. π
I love your hobbies, some of which are also mine. The garden does consume much of my time in spring, summer, and fall. But I love it!
Do you make the bird nests for decorating or set them out for birds?

I make them for the birds. I use scrap wood and adjust the size. Not only for birds but also squirrels and hedgehogs.

That is cool! You’ll have to post pictures of them sometime on your blog! We have too many dogs to have squirrels (they stay away) and we do not have hedgehogs. Sigh.

These are beautiful cards, Angie. And probably so fun to give to friends. My hobbies other than writing include reading, gardening, painting, yoga, and organizing (I know, weird but it is calming to me when I can put things in order) :).

Oh, I need you to come and organize! I LOVE organizing and being organized, but lately that is the last thing I get to! Thank you for your kind words! I do love to give/send my cards. π
