Just want to let you know I have added a few photos to past posts .. Look at yesterdays posting you will see last night photos of dinner with the Birthday boy .. and also look at " Happy Sunday" posting to view Harriet with her new grandson .Thanks for looking
Ok onto todays post:
I have ben seeing alot of stampers making these windowsheet over lay cards so of course I had to make one also so here is Mine
.I used Mixed Bouquet stamp set with Pixie pink and whisper white Cardstock for the ink I used pixie pink with certainly celery I also did the crayon resist technqiue on the little circles.. I used white staz-on ink for the overlay on the window sheet .. I must say these type of cards are so fun and easy and WOW what a elegant touch ..
Tonight My Daughter is in her school Play production of APRIL MORNING " this play is a full blown stage production not your typical school play you may be use to attending .. Jessie has 2 sceens she will be in and she is also doing make-up and hair for this production ..How exciting .. She was at school until 9:30pm reheasing and I got a peek of these awesome costumes her and everyone will be wearing tonight.. The play is centered around Civial war time so you can just imagine the costumes with soliders, the hair dos , Big flowing dresses and everything ..I am so excited to see this tonight . Jessie has a LONG day ahead of her today with dress reheasal continueing today .. she will not even come home after school today, she will be staying all day right up to when the play starts at 7:00pm tonight. The play is written by a Christian Man in NC and is about a young man running from God , But we all know we cant run for long right ? I will share some photos tommorrow .. I am sooo exited .. I know I think I said thats already huh?
I got only 12 or so More santas wrappers to make ( the baby ones ) and I have also been making a few other items to mix up my day a bit. I have made a handful of these beaded pens
. still want at least 20 more of them .. But I wanted to share with you this photo mainly because of the pen holder the Jar is a Olive jar YUP I kept the empty jar and recovered it and put some beans at the bottom and stuck the pens in there I think the jar it self will hold maybe 10 pens at once sooo I have 2 other jars to make simular to this one .. I also added the price of the pens to the outside of the jar .My thoughts are the more I have priced and they can see for themselfs the more they may buy …KWIM .. I know for me I hate to always ask How much things are, dont you ? I will also have place cards with the prices for everything else so they wont have to ask on everything .. pretty much everything I will be selling for the most part will be 6 dollars and under with just a few items under the $12 mark .. The craft show will be in the basement of my hubbys annual Christmas party at work .. My thoughts are the Christmas party will be going on and will be the Main attaction and maybe most people wont have Money on them to buy since they are coming for the christmas party , But everyone should have a few dollars on them to get something from my table .. Hey should I accept personal checks ? anyone out there in Blogger land do this accept personal checks at a craft show ? This is the 1st year they are offering the craft fair .. so I am very excited ..
I have also been busy rounding up display goodies .. I 1st rented 1 table BUT then I got to thinkin I may need another one for displaying all kinds of other hand made goodies these items will not be for sale ( of course if the price is right .. well then Maybe Hee! Hee!) things I have gathered are of course a couple of my scrapbooks, paper bag books, boxes , cards, accordian books, name frames etc… can you think of anything else I may want to add to this display ?
Here is a cute link to have a fun time shakin the snow globe and watch all those people go flying around ..Shake the snowglobe
Have a Great Friday everyone and until later .. Happy Stampin!












The card is beautiful! I wish I had the guts to try something like this. I also LOVE your beaded pens…how cute! I’m off to finish up my project for tomorrow! Have a great Friday!
What a GREAT card, from the picture it looks like it was dry embossed!
I really loved the pens. What a neat idea. How do you come up with them? I hope you have a great sale.
I love your transparency overlay card, it’s truly beautiful. I was just wondering how you attach the transparency?
Very beautiful card!
dawn you inspire me!
i don’t know if this is appropriate, but maybe you could have some SU catalogs on hand?
What a beautiful card,how did you attach the tranparency.
Thank you for Santa wrapper instructions
WOnderful card!!! How did you make the pen? Did you stamp the image and glue it to the outside of the pen instead of putting the image inside the pen? The image looks bigger than it would if it was rolled up inside the pen. Can you post a tutorial?
