Hi Everyone ~ Hope all is well in your world. I was so fortunate to be able to meet and spend some time with some ladies that I meet through their blogs. I had a wonderful time crafting with Norma at pinkblingcrafter and Patty at creativediva. Norma was the perfect host, she had 5 projects for us to do and she made us the most yummy cake and some wonderful coffee. We had a blast putting the project together. Norma also made both Patty and myself cute little gift boxes. Norma and Patty are so sweet and wonderful and I am truly grateful to have them in my life. They both inspire me everyday to keep my crafting mojo going. I also had the pleasure of meeting Olga from threebutterflykisses. I can't believe I was so fortunate to be able to meet my fellow bloggers. I hope to be able to spend more time with them and someday meet more of my blogger friends.
Here are the projects we did and the beautiful gift box.

I made a second drawer card for my nieces Baby Shower. Both of them came out so darn cute. 

All of the card and gift box were made from StampinUP products. Be sure to stop by Norma's blog pinkblingcrafter to check out StampinUp products. You will love them.

Be sure to stop by Norma's, Patty's and Olga's blog and leave them some love.

Happy Crafting!!!!!!

Baby Altoid Tin

Hi Everyone ~ I can't believe how long it has been since I posted anything. Hope all of you are have are enjoying 2012, I know I am. I have been trying to do some crafting for myself and of course I have been finishing up all of my orders. In fact I have gotten more. Here is one of the orders that I finished. It is a altered altoid tin. The order was for a Baby tin in shades of green since they don't know the gender of the baby. I used all kinds of products, way to many to list, I am sure all of you can figure out what most of them are since we love them all. LOL! When I gave it to the person that ordered it, she loved it so much she ordered 2 more. YAY!!  Hope you all like it.

Happy Crafting!!!!

Happy New Year and a Frog and Hello Kitty Mini

Hi Everyone ~ Hope you all had a Happy! Happy! New Year! As promise here are two of the orders I had from the craft fair and more to come. The ladies that ordered the frog mini and the Hello Kitty mini wanted them for their Secret Santa. You should of seen the looks on the recipients faces when they opened their gifts. They were so surprised and loved them.
Here is the frog, he is so darn cute. I had to make one for myself. LOL!!!!!!

The frog is made from Create a Critter cart and I did the size on my Gypsy. I just love my gypsy.

I used scraps of paper that I had, so sorry I can't tell you exactly who the paper is made by. I used cereal boxes in between to give the mini strength. The belly of the frog is what holds the photos and journaling spots. Before I wrapped the frog up I put an eyelet in the far end of the left cheek and a ring with lots of green and pink ribbons.

On the the Hello Kitty mini!

The Hello Kitty was made with the Hello Kitty cart and my gypsy. Cute! Cute!

The stem of the flower is what holds the photos and journaling spots. I put an eyelet on the left corner of the the ear and a ring with lots of pink ribbon. The recipient of this mini is a major Hello Kitty fan. She loved it.

It was so awesome that I could use all of my scraps to make both mini's. I hate wasting paper or anything for that matter.

I guess I could enter these in challenges but I have looked to see which ones they could be entered in to. Maybe that will be something I work on in the year 2012!!! LOL! Hope you enjoy the mini's.

Happy Crafting!!!!!

Craft Fair

Hi Everyone ~ Oh my I haven't posted in a very long time. Sorry my bloggy friends. I had been busy getting ready for a Craft Fair that is put on my some wonderful ladies at work. It is now a annual event. This was my first ever Craft Fair and I had a blast. There were around 15 vendors and one of the ladies I work with had made up beautiful bottles with olive oil flavors and vinegar flavors. She did very well. I made a variety of things. I made some boxes that had the Hershey chocolate nuggets in them with the Stampin'Up candy wraps around the nuggets and on the top of the boxes were stamped santa's, reindeer, Christmas tree, stocking, present, Christmas ornament, turkey and Thanks. On the Christmas wraps they say very merry and the turkey ones say give thanks, and the thanks says 4 you. My hubby did all the wraps on the nuggets. What a great hubby, that's why I love him.  All were stamped on the curly label punch from Stampin'Up. I buy all of my Stampin'Up products from my dear friend Norma at pinkblingcrafter. Please be sure to stop by and show her some love she is AMAZING! I also made some gift tags with my Cricut. I made some fancy ones with Christmas tree and used the white embossing powder from Stampin'Up for the snow. I also made a journal.  All of the other items on my table were samples of what people could have made to order. 

If I do say so myself I did very well, I sold out of the boxes and most of the gift tags and got several special orders. I am so excited!!! I now will be busy filling the orders.
Here are some pictures of my table and the things I made for the fair.

    

Hope you all like my projects, they were so much fun to make. The boxes with the chocolates in them are the best. The reindeer is my favorite he is sooooo cute. Don't you think?

Some day I will figure out how to put the pictures in blogger the way I want them. LOL!!!!

Happy Crafting!!!!!
