After yesterdays scary postings Hee! Hee! ….Maybe  todays post  should be something sweet .. right ?   ok this is my pencil box I made  for my christmas craft fair  .. I will be  making at least 3 more of these  BUT, once  again I dont know what to charge again for this item .. inside this box holds a calendar  & cover, a package of tags , 2  different sized  covered  note  pads, a matching RSVP pen , bag with cover, 4 matching cards,  and a book marker.. My upline gave me one  simular to this last  January at Leardership seminar and I fell in love with it .. I have also since then submitted one to SU! ( with Debbies appoval of course and if I were to win I would  share the winnings with her too) BUT never heard anything from SU! about it ( insert sad face ) .. HUMM what happened .I really dont know.. I have made several of these  since  I recieved  my gift from  my  up. up ,upline Debbie.  I  especially love these for teacher gifts also . I have tried making them all kinds of different ways, one way I tried and DID not like was the Modge podge  way  did not turn out good for me .. so I  am sticking with  the  reg old adhesive way .. you can use Snail , sticky strip   try other things and see what works best for you .. I found the pencil boxes at Joannes and at Micheals . Have fun !!

  *** Dawns Side note ***Also  a few gals have requested I add  a "SUBSCRIBER "  list to my blog .. so if you have noticed the GET EMAIL UPDATES on the top left side of my blog under my photo,  This is the place ..I  do Think I have it set up correctly now . so just add your email in this box and  feedblitz will forward any new  posting I make to my blog to your email address  at least thats the plan .. I was trying to figure out what I was doing wrong when I 1st set this up .. well appartently I needed to  subscribe myself to FEEDBLITZ newsletter so you all could  use this for my blog feed  so I do believe it is working now .. Please  let me know ?

Today for Sunday school class I stamped out  halloween ‘Color cards " for my kids to color before class starts  I will send these actual cards they colored  to them   for Halloween . I used my  Karen Foster’s  snap stamps and stamped out "HOPPY HALLOWEEN" and then used the unfrogettable set  stamped all over the front and  the inside so they will have lots to color in .. should be interesting   to see how they will turn out differently  .. I may post the after photos  later to share with you all also .. so stay tuned 

Yesterday I cut and mounted my moms stamp set  from mini catalog "Heavenly peace" Love this set  for  those simple cards I plan to make for my craft fair ..I made some  yesterday  OH I love this set .. I tried embossing BUT took away from the simple design  so I just stamped in Cho chip  oooohhhh so simple and beautiful  I can hardly contain myself ..  I made these for my next Stampers club hostess "Jenny " ( pack of 10 ) and also  a pack of four for my mom for letting me borrow it  now I just need to whip out  packs of 6  for my craft fair .. stay tuned  for those photos ..

All my leaves are pretty much  on the ground in my back yard 🙁  We had our youth group auction  and bought BEN ( This is the boy Jessie likes )  and Ben will come over one day and help us  rake up all these leaves .. We  rented him for 65.00 for 2 hours  so I am sure we ( I mean BEN ) Hee Hee!  will get lots done .. better be soon since its down right freezing  here in Michigan .. and of course the sooner the better for Jess ..

Until later .. Happy Stampin !
