Current projects and quick update

Hello all!! Just a quick update since I haven't had a chance to post in over a week. Things have been very busy here, so I haven't had time to finish a full project yet. I am currently working on altering an old washboard I have had tucked away in my stash. I am also working on stocking my card stash, as I may have an offer to stock them in a local shop!! Eek!!! Anyway, no pictures yet but I will soon. Thanks for stopping by! -AR
