I am bombarded with cards! Cards in all shapes and sizes. A little bit off the track for  crafts, but then the words  -card and crafts sound good together and today this is on my tic toc brain – I am busy clearing clutter in handbags and drawers - do I really need / want all these cards?

The sad part is that I cleaned /cleared out my filing for the last 6 months and away in the recycling went all those vouchers and special discounts coupons received which I forgot about / never used. How many of us do that on a daily basis? We hope for something for ‘free’ but at the end  of the day nothing is for free. Although my heart skips a beat when I get to spend some point at Boots / Tesco!!!

I have another special file in which all business cards go. How I like to collect these things!

So let me get on with my filing and clearing – should be finish by tonight, as well as getting hubbie’s books ‘up to date’.

On that cardie note – My pretty new business cards have been designed by http://www.yasminenaylor.com/ and should be here on Tuesday. It makes me feel so 'important' to be going to hand out 'business cards'.!
