It was the summer of 1998. I sat in a living room of a friend's home on Hickam Air Force Base in Honolulu, Hawaii. I was not interested in what was being presented. I was there to socialize with the other military wives. We all had a common bond, our husbands were gone frequently. This was also my social outing. I had been home all day with my 5 year old daughter and it felt great to be with other adults.
I made a purchase to help my friend. I called it my "pity purchase". It was a stamp set – wood mount. When it arrived, I looked at it and thought "what am I gonna do with this thing?". I called my friend. She had cardstock and ink pads and together we made my very first hand stamped card.
That was 17 1/2 years ago.
If someone had told me that being creative would lead me to incredible friendships, earning free trips and providing an income I would have poo-poo'd them. Never, in my wildest dreams, did I think that THIS was all possible.
Nor did I think that I was capable. But, I've learned something incredibly important after all these years.
