This year’s event was a success! We raised over $1200 and 1300 pounds of food! The door prizes were a big hit and the raffle prizes were great too! 

One of the raffle prizes was a night in a gorgeous hotel off the Pier and this basket full of goodies.    
Here’s the banner.

  One of the best prizes was this scrapbook tote packed full of awesome items!

Cards

Simple yet versatile

So I was playing in the craft room the other day and saw a card that inspired me to make this simple yet versatile design. It’s great for any occasion! Guys or girls, birthday to sympathy, just add a saying off to the right and you’re good to go!

  
Used a dark green card base, Crumb Cake for a second layer, Whisper White, then used three shades of green for the “brushed” background and stamped the pine from Lovely As A Tree. Added some twine and voila! Quick and easy card ready in minutes!

Order a set by contacting me! I can customize any order with quantity, sayings, or other cards or gift wrapping. Order a stationary set that includes a decorative box to house the cards and envelopes to give to a special friend.

The Craft-In Craft Fair

Well, I participated in the first ever Craft-In at the Drive-In Craft Fair, unfortunately for me, it wasn’t too great. The show was a lot of fun, and there were some awesome vendors, but I think some of my products were a little too specific. Everyone that came by the booth kept picking up my roving and asking, “Oh, is this yarn?” ^_^ I politely replied, “No, but you can turn it into yarn.” They expressed how they could never be able to do that, and set it down and walked away. ~_~ But, that doesn’t mean that if I have the right audience, I can’t do another show! So bring on the Fiber Fairs!

Anyways, here are some pictures of the show. My boyfriend did a great job with the photos, as usual! ^_^ If you see any items that you absolutely can’t live without, check out these shops to find them! Melissa’s Kre8tions and Spinning Sisters
