Craft, Create, Celebrate Life
This is such a cute swap idea. Make a card and hide a little heart somewhere for your partner to find. The card is meant for your partner to use to send to someone else.
Here is the card I made see if you can spot the heart.
Extra card sent, with a big obvious heart lol.
I love writing letters, it is so relaxing to just sit with my thoughts and put them down on paper. I have several pen friends that I have found on facebook. I do hope they stick with me but truth be told I might lose some over time, and have to find replacements. In the mean time I am enjoying very much the one’s I have now.
Looking at the picture I really need to spruce up my envelopes and make them somehow prettier at least some of the times. Have you done any writing lately? Please share in the comments any of your pen friend adventures.

Got up early this morning before the kids got up and did some writing. I sat at my desk and wrote two letters and drank a cup of coffee.
It was so relaxing and soothing to do this, I think I will make it a weekday ritual.
I have ventured beyond swap-bot and joined a group on Facebook called Pen pals For Life and now have a couple of pen friends. I still enjoy swapping on Swap Bot just have another avenue now to find pen pal friends.
I enjoy baking but I don’t enjoy having the cake hang around the house calling my name. I bought this cookie mold recently and finally got to try it out for my kids birthdays.
Here is my try at using these cute molds.
This was my first try, the mold came out really easy and in one piece
This is how it looked before the candle was added. The cake was German Chocolate
This is my second try and I got the white cream cheese icing and added blue food coloring
How pretty is that shade and oh so tasty
This is the finished cake now I am not planning on quitting my day job any time soon and go into cake decorating.
