Starting Something Different...

Hello friends! Hope y'all have had a great last few weeks!

Sorry I haven't been around much. Been short handed at work and

I also just got back from a 9 day vacation. I promise I

will get back to posting more great things soon! Speaking of which,

I have decided to not only post about the cards I make, but

I am also going to start posting about some lovely handmade (indie as

they call them) nail polishes I have discovered! I love all things

that are handmade! I am also a bit of a polish hoarder along with being

a paper and embellishment hoarder so I thought instead of

making a new blog to share my handmade polish finds, I thought since

the title of my blog is "Heart for Handmade" that it seems logical

to share here along side my handmade papercraft projects!

I will share my first post tomorrow featuring a brand new handmade

polish brand called Nail Hoot. Please stop back by!
