A new begining!!!!

So today I have finally done something thats been on my mind for a while. For the last couple of years I have often thought about opening some kind of shop or website to sell some of my papercrafts. It has always been in the back of my mind, but often life gets in the way and time goes by so fast. It just seemed I never really had a lot of time to focus on it or get it going. I guess I dreaded the initial set up of everything.


Well this year has been very different from me. I've got a great job that gives a good amount of vacation time. I was able to take the last 2 and 1/2 weeks of August off. The first week I spent in Cape Cod with the closest of friends, and had such a wonderful time. The later part of vacation I focused on getting items ready to sell. I've been able to make a few sets of Halloween cards, journaling spots, a tag album and some layouts. Of course, I probably could have gotten a lot more done but then theres a problem. The last grand slam of the year had been on this week, the U.S. Open of Tennis. And I have been glued to the t.v. I think I have watched about 60+ hours of tennis over the last week. And there is more yet to come. There's really been great competion and awesome matches. And I am so lucky to go to the Open this Thursday, to be there in the flesh just takes my breathe away.


But anyways, back to what I was saying. So I now have a shop on Etsy. So excited. It took my most of the day to get everything finalized and to set up the shop. To take pics, write desciptions, policies, shipping options, blah, blah, blah... But its done! Yay!!! And just in time. Back to work tomorrow.


So it also brings me to this. Why not start a blog to talk about whats going on with my new adventure. I even got a You Tube account and uploaded a video, scary I know. So I will post often and keep this place updated. Will hope to talk about the shop, life, and anything else that pops in my head.


Here's the shops website: houseofezma.etsy.com
