Fun Weekend

I had a great time this weekend. I only made $20.00 at the craft fair but my friends and I had fun for a spur of the moment decision. Our high school craft fair isnt the biggest event of the year but it is a fun social time and donations go to the Outing Club.

On Sunday I went shopping at Ocean State Job Lots and the Dollar Tree and spent a fortune! I found so many inexpensive items to alter for next year. I found scarves, gloves, candles etc. I really should be getting my craft room clean so I can start all these projects.

I am trying to rearrange my craft room as I clean to make it more user friendly since I am constantly using my big shot lately. I used to have it up on a shelf since I only used it once in awhile. Now that I have built a collection of dies I am using it more and more. I am also trying to use up old things or donate them to the school craft group. I wish weekends were a little longer so I could finish all my plans.

Happy Stamping!

Craft Fair Today

Today is our high school craft fair which I am selling a few cards. I made 60 not knowing how it will go. I have a few stamped candles and stamped memo pads. This year I am sharing a table with a lady who sells quilts. Basically she needed help and said if I helped I could put things in it too. We will see how it goes. I have seen lots of things this year on line that if I had been planning far enough ahead I could have done a few more things. I am making a list of all the things I would like to do possible for next year. I guess it all depends on how this year goes.

Snowman Soup

I found the cutest snowman Sizzix die at JoAnn's. It has the nose, eyes etc on the die but I had this stamp that fit perfectly on the face and the Snowman Soup stamp fit perfectly on his stomach. I used my Cuttlebug folder to give his scarf and the topnote die some texture. I made about 20 of these for the craft fair at the high school. I have Christmas cards that I have made, some candles and stamped post it notes. Hopefully, I will be more prepared for next year having cards for all sorts of occastions. This year I am just trying out a few things that may sell.

Happy Stamping!

Punch Ornament

I just love when stamp sets and punches make card making so much easier!

Wish I Had My Camera on Oct 23...

Not that is would have done me any good cuz I would have had to slam on my brakes which would have caused an accident LOL. I couldnt believe my eyes...I saw a coyote not far from a main road in a field!!! I turned my car around but of course it was gone. It was amazing. I have never seen one even tho my MIL has lost cats to them and you can hear them in the woods near her house.

Happy Halloween

How did the end of the month get here so quickly?? I never really got to any Halloween cards other than the BAB. I have been working on a few items for a craft fair coming up at my school. I am also becoming a Big Shot junkie. Not only playing with it, watching videos on different projects which just add to my wish list....

I will post what I have been working on later this week.

Seasons Greeting

I have been dying to make on of these cards and thought it would be much harder than it actually was. The little deer stamps up so cute. It is a really basic stamp but can be made into so many cute things I think.
Here is the view from the other side. And finally a close up on the verse. If I remember correctly it was done with Close to Cocoa and Chocolate Chip markers. Basically two tones of brown. I think this would be cute done in a red and green combination.
