Hand Made Cards & Paper Crafts

It is a new month. First off, Happy May Day. I do not have a project this year for May Day. Although, the kids and I made simple baskets with pre-made silk flowers to secretly drop at our friend’s and neighbor’s doors. Still loving May Day but had to take the easy route this year….

Google Friend Dis-Connect I’ve just been alerted to the fact that “Google Friend Connect” will be changing in March! A few months ago Google quietly announced they would discontinue Google Friend Connect for non-Blogger Blogs. Why are they doing this? Google is encouraging bloggers to create new Google Plus pages in lieu of their old…
