Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity!, a personal crafting blog!
who: Hello! I'm Becca S, a 60+ year old artsy-craftsy blogger and have dabbled in lots of arts and crafts since a young girl. I've also dabbled in practical arts 'formally' at age 9 through 4-H Club in taking Learning to Cook 1 (scrambled eggs, hard-boiled egg, bake potato, shredding carrots, rice cereal w marshmallow treats) and Learning to Bake 1 (brownies, cookies) plus Learning to Sew 1 (gathered/drawstring bag, pillow). Oh those memories of being a beginner. <3
where: this is for creative fun and is not a design team committed project
when: this personal blog post will be published on October 19, 2026.
why: This just for fun Pink Christmas card is to take advantage of some October challenges before their deadlines. Also to help promote my newest challenge blog, Heart's Quest Pretty in Pink Challenges which has a main theme of 'anything goes mostly pink'.
