Uh, yeah, it's been a LONG while since I've been here. I have ANOTHER new shop name but this one I actually like and have been using for a few months. I am now "happy paper"! I changed my blog to that name also, but my myspace is still under "craftedbyjenn". I don't feel like trying to add all those friends again.

Jeez it is FREEZING in Phoenix today! It's made me just want to sit curled up all day long...very unproductive!

I didn't realize this was kind of the same website as Poshmam.com, which I joined last week. Well, I must say I DO love etsy! I've only made one sale so far but I am damn proud of it! I never thought I'd get any sales, now I have ONE, and for some reason that's good enough for me! lol

I'm still learning all the ins and outs of etsy. I try to post in the forums but that can get to be so time consuming. I try not to let myself sit on the computer TOO long during the day. It is very hard t… Continue
