Sometime in the winter, I had obtained some divided page protectors (I believe it was in response to a Shimelle weekend challenge that I was unable to fulfull). Other than transferring and completing a page that was half-done with an 8.5x11 protector that came from somewhere in the office (?????), these protectors sat on my desk for some months. Then, quite a while before any of the 2013 Christmas photos made it to my desk, I used a few to complete last years layouts - specifically 2-page layouts. At that time I mostly used cut-up 12x12 paper with a few 3x4s from cut-apart sheets. It was really quite fun and I promise that you will see these in the near future - but as that's not what this post is about, let's move on.
My obsession with cut-apart sheets grew... then, alas, manufacturers started creating Project Life cards that coordinated with their more popular paper lines. And so, I took the plunge and purchased a few (DL Polka-Dot Party & MH Flea Market were purchased at Hobby Lobby while the DL Daydreamer was ordered online). They are awesome and once I used a few, I was surely obsessed (you'll see my first layout later, but as this post is not about that - well, etc.). These 'mini-kits' come in a lovely little box like this:
While shopping the Project Life section at Hobby Lobby, I found these even smaller packages of Project Life cards:
and guess what???? many of them coordinate with other paper lines... i.e. the 'Winter' mini-kit matches the Crate Paper's Bundled Up, the 'Love' kit matches Crate Paper's Fourteen, the 'Celebration' kit matches Crate Paper's Party Day, etc.!!! Oh, heavenly! Most of these mini-kits come with two each 3x4 cards/1-2 each of 4x6. Of course the boxed versions have a few more cards than the other packages. These are the perfect size for me, I like 2 of each card as I really don't want that many redundant cards in my album. Also, if I screw up on the patterned side of a card (have done that already) I can just cut a new one from a 6x6 pad.
So, even though I love some of the themes/colors of the large Project Life kits, I just cannot buy one as they usually contain several of each card - even with my obsession, this is totally too much for just me!!!
Now, on to the main point of this post. I recently purchased a WeRMemoryKeepers kit of 3x4 & 4x6 cards at a very good sale price. It is of the "Capture" line. Once I had opened it, I found that, even though a relatively small looking kit, it had several of each card - many more than my 'two' rule. So here's the deal, I have a few sets of 3x4/4x6 cards I would like to give away rather than just letting them sit here in a box somewhere. Therefore, if you would like a set of these, send your name and address to me at: tjthenonna@gmail.com. (Even if you're across the pond, still go for it if you're interested.) It's first come, first serve of course as there are only a few sets each of which consists of approximately 63 cards - 2 ea of 24-3x4 and 1 ea of 15-4x6. As each card is different on the front and back, they are really very versatile.
Okay, that's it for today. It's really cold here in Florida today after a night of severe thunderstorms and flash floods, so I'm going to wrap up and put on a movie. I hope everyone else is super crafty.
Stay Safe and Scrap On!

Fun!!!!!! Thanks for the chance to win some cute stuff!! I love the PL cards too even though I don't do Project Life. I think they're great for adding a tiny bit of color and a whole lot of storytelling!!
