Prepping for Vendor Fair

I have a lot of work to do... Next Saturday will be my very first Vendor Fair. I am hoping to meet some new friends that I can craft with. I have been decorating some notepads so that I can give them out as door prizes - let me know what you think!

"Wishes" Card Workshop

Wishes is one of the 5 "How-To" books from CTMH.  I recommend it to anyone who loves making cards!  I love it because it saves me a lot of time and gives me many ideas.  I've gotten together with friends in the past, and had a hard time figuring out what to do.  With Wishes, I dont have that problem anymore!

I made these cards using only 5 12x12 sheets (2 B&T sheets and 3 cardstocks) - I hope you enjoy the pictures:

April Card-Making Workshop (preview)

I'm hosting a Card-Making Workshop tomorrow night, featuring the Veranda paper collection from Close to my Heart. We'll be making several cards, using three different designs. I have a few ideas to make the cards better. I'll be sure to take pictures of the cards we make tomorrow so you can see the changes! These are the cards I made last week in preparation...

GPS Cover

My husband, son, and I went on our first family vacation earlier this month, and my husband forgot his GPS cover at my brother's house. I made it for him in January of 2009, since the GPS was a Christmas present. I decided to make him a new one since he liked his cover so much...
