That moment when I thought to myself, "I wish I could make money from doing what I love...crafting!" In that moment, CarrCreations was born. In the beginning, it was anything I could create I would sell. I made note cards, dabbled in sewing, and even started embroidering anything I could. I even tried to embroider my husband's work shirts. I found though that I wasn't consistent with it, and I just didn't have the time to do all that and manage a household and four kids. I also realized that as much as I love doing all that stuff, over time it wore me out. It soon became something I dreaded doing rather than something I loved doing. I had to pick something. Focus on something. One thing. For me, the decision was easy. I could sit at a computer all day and play in Photoshop. I can draw inspiration from all around me and from it create a product I'm proud of. So, that's when I finally decided that I was only going to do paper goods. I love them. Everything about them. The variety, the colors, the simplicity, the intricacy, the ability to make something beautiful from scraps of paper. I could spend hours in a stationery store. Browsing. Admiring. Becoming inspired. Paper draws me in.

So now, that's what CarrCreations is all about. Paper. And while I want so badly to make this a full-time adventure, life is at that stage where things are just crazy right now. Thus, my time is limited. So, for now, it remains a hobby. One day though, hopefully, it'll be more! So I create when I can, add something new when I can, and I never get tired of it. I also love custom design so I love those messages from people asking if I can do this, or create that! So just because you don't see it in my shop, doesn't mean we can't create it!
