Gift Card Holder

I made two of these gift card holders for the babysitters. I found the tutorial somewhere, I just don't remember, I get all my ideas from others.  The paper is from the "I Wish" paper pack along with the cute reindeer sticker.  The sentiment is "Loads of Love" stamp set.

I had a lot of fun making them and its nice to give a gift card but also nice to have the inside of a card to write something.  Have a great day and enjoy the rest of 2008!

Some more of the Craft Fair!

Here's me at the table. My sister Cindy took all the pictures. She did a FABULOUS job on all the items she sold at our table. I loved her gift card holders and especially the presentation. She wrapped the lid of a shirt box with Stampin' Up!'s gift wrap from last year and filled it with table salt mixed with Chunky Blue Glitter! It looked like real snow! She had the card holders standing up in the snow. You can see them on the right hand side of the picture. The blue and silver colors look beautiful together. Thanks for looking and have a great day!

More Craft Fair Photos

Here is a set of coasters and the mug w/tea bag. Everyone commented that our display was great and they all liked our products.

Craft Fair

These are some of the milk cartons. I stamped most with versa mark and the snow flake stamp from the Merry and Bright set. They are all filled with candy canes and the In Colors paper really looked nice.

Just came back from the craft fair and I'm very tired. My sister Cindy came from RI to help out and to add to the table. We had a good day and thought it was a good learning experience. Now we know what to expect and next year we'll be prepared. I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving and are ready to begin the holiday shopping!

Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm thankful for; Jesus, my loving family, good health, a free country, and friends. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and are able to reflect on your blessings and give thanks for them.

Trivets!
Here are a couple of the trivets I've done for next weekends craft fair. I think these came out great and I hope they will be a big hit. I used the Glassy Glaze Enamel on them and they have the feeling of embossing. I have coasters to match and will try to post pictures of them soon. Have a great Friday!

Crazy For Cupcakes
I made this card for my good friend Anna. I had to take a picture of it before sending it off in the mail. I don't think she'll see it here before it reaches her, but if you do Anna, just be surprised when it comes in the mail! The stamp set is Crazy for Cupcakes, the card stock is Elegant Eggplant, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White and Kiwi DP. Basic Black ink and Stampin Pastels ( one of my favorite products). The 5/8" ribbon is Certainly Celery. Have a great Tuesday!

I love this card. It's from one of my favorite sets, "Loads of Love". You can do so much with that set. This is a card we made at Marylyn's workshop. The ribbon is from the Holiday Mini catalog, 1 1/4" Riding Hood Red/Very Vanilla. We used vintage brads for the wheels, Not sure if you can tell by the picture. If you'd like to make this card all you need is Riding Hood Red card stock, Whisper White card stock, Old Olive card stock, Real Red classic ink, Always Artichoke classic ink, Basic Black classic ink, blender pens, vintage brads, ribbon, and dimentionals. Go to my Stampin' Up! web site and shop on-line! Have a great Friday!

So here is a card we made at Susan's workshop. It came out pretty good and everyone loved using the heat tool for the silver embossing powder! Lots of fun!! The card is Bashful Blue card stock, Not Quite Navy, and Certainly Celery. After folding the card we then cut off an 1" strip on the side. Used Versa Mark with the "Season of Joy" stamp set, Silver Embossing powder and finally tied a knot of Certainly Celery 5/8" grosgrain ribbon aroung the card. What do you think?

First day at this blogging thing.  I'm trying to work out all the kinks.  Bear with me, I'm not very computer savvy.  I'll try to post a picture of a card soon... I'm working on some projects for a craft fair and I might be able to upload those pictures too...maybe
