the skills required are likely to be social and creative skills. i still can’t believe that i spent this tremendous amount of money within a few weeks. i used to drive around on my little scooter finding bottles and trading them in for quarters. i said i want to focus on eyes and lips because those are my key features. i stamped and die cut the roses using very vanilla card stock and cherry cobbler ink. good luck with all your plans - hope they are all successful, and that your bike trip will be amazing!
