Paper Pumpkin Card with Stars and Weekly Deals

Hi Blogging Friends!
 
I still don't have Jury Duty yet!! So glad, I have a really busy day and week! I am going to a Jewelry party tomorrow, Scarf party on Thursday and I am having a Thirty One Party on Friday night!! Wow that is not it... I have a Craft show on Saturday! I might be staying in bed all day on Sunday! lol
 
I got my Paper Pumpkin kit the Saturday and made it the same day! I really loved this one. I did not change anything except that I used a sponge dauber around the edges. 
 

The Stars are a Garland. I just used glue dots on the back of the banner piece to hold them secure. I was real careful on how I used them so I still have some for another project.

Festive Flurry Card

Hi Blogging Friends!
 
I have Jury Duty this next week, I already called in and I don't have to go in on Monday. This is the 4th or 5th time I have been summoned, but I have never been called in. IDK this just might be it?! lol I will keep you all up to date to see what happens.
I made this card with a layout that I have used before. I really like this layout it does have a lot of pieces, but it goes together fast! So its great for a club or class card. If you would like the measurements for this card here is a link to a past card with the info.
 
I used the Framelits on the "Pool Party" snowflake and the cut out by hand the "Island Indigo" part. These Framelits are my favorite! If you don't have them yet... PUT them on your List. Or even better then that go right to my Online Store and get them today!


I took out some of my Retired Christmas stuff to finish this card.
Stamp Set: Greetings of the Season
Big Shot: Decorative Strip Northern Frost
The Northern Frost has 8 different snowflakes, sizes and shapes I love it!
 

This is the one we did in a class, I wanted to use the glitter paper to give it some Bling... But wow it might have had to much Sparkle! lol

Wow look how much it Sparkles! It's blinding! lol

One More Sneak Peek at photos from my Arts and Craft Show
 
 
This is a cute little wood Gingerbread Girl that I painted. My Husband cut a bunch of them out for me. I also used a little carving tool around the edges of the paint colors to give it a primitive look. The Table Runners are made by my friend Rachel Collman they are $25.00 and she made a bunch of them and they are just Stinkin' Cute! (btw I bought the Owl one!) The show was in Hansville Washington, at the community center.
 
Next week I am doing a Craft Show at Gordon Elementary its in Kingston Washington. I would love to see you there! If you live in the area come by my both and say Hi! 
 
Thanks for looking at my cute stuff

Festive Flurry Christmas Card and Sneek Peek of Christmas Show

Hi Blogging Friends!!!
 
I was up all night making cards last night, its just nice to have some quiet time. I am doing another Arts and Crafts gift show next weekend and had to make more cards because I sold so many that I need to make more!!! I am totally in love with the Snow flake stamp set and Framelits set called "Festive Flurry". This card turned out so Pretty, I don't think you can go wrong with this set.
 
I used the DSP for the first snowflake, silver paper for the second and I stamped the third image in "Pool Party". I toped it off with a "Frosted Finishes" that are in the Stampin' Up Holiday Catalog.


I used the Joy stamp from "A Banner Christmas" then cut it out. I put the banner down first with dimensionals first, then put the ribbon behind it with glue dots. The silver ribbon is kind of stiff and only wanted to go in a straight line. lol
 
 
This is one of the pictures from my Gift show that I did last weekend. Look at my cute Owl made with some cute Peacock colored fabric and also a the table runner underneath the card and Owl was made by my friend and downline Rachel Collman. I was selling this card for $4.00 but most of my cards are $3.50.
