[Nfb-krafters-korner] Friday's questions

[Dan Brewer]

Hi List,
Most of the time I learn by listening.  When I had the stamping Up 
party I listened and followed the dirrections and needed only a bit 
of help. When I got my supplies home I could practice more and I came 
up with several uses for the information.

Making choholate was similar. I made my first batch with a 
friend.  Now, I read info on the net and increase my knowledge to do 
more interesting items with more ease. But I needed the help the 
first time in each case.

Often, when Iread dirrections, I imagine the finished product in a 
totallay different way then the instructions taught.  But most of my 
crafts are for my use and they come out to be just what I need.

That is one great thing about crafting. The product is suposed to be 
your inturpatation of a craft.  Mass production provides like 
products every time.

Most people are very happy to show me things.  I usually don't have 
to say a word. I guess my expression shows my confusion.

I enjoyed finding ways to label my stamps and inks and I use my color 
identifier to check paper colors.  I use layers of paper and things 
like metal decorations, ribbons and flowers with decorative brads to 
make my items.  I use a stamp or two just to add visual interest and, 
of course, the words.
