craft shows

November 17th is from 9-4 at the Grange in Palouse.

 I will be there with Kristi Overfelt, Patty Snyder and Julie Miller. We will be selling papercrafts, collage art and some clearance stamp sets. 

December 1 is only from 9-noon at my house with Shai Ann Collier. This is a chance for Shai and I to sell some crafty things we have been making. We also use it as a chance to sell some furniture and household stuff from our houses. This year we hope to also have some outdoor greenery arrangements. 

a wonderful weekend

Unpacking today from a wonderful weekend at the Palouse Divide Lodge. Pajama days, no cooking, no cleaning, just crafting. Here is the room before everyone arrived:

We had thirty one women this four day weekend. Each of them had their own table to spread out. Some were scrapbookers, some were quilters, some were papercrafters and some were a mix of it all. We watched movies, danced, giggled, napped and enjoyed the company. Lane and Shirley take such good care of us. We even played Bunco with some of the women from the other craft group in the other lodge. There was even a lady giving massages. Wonderful!!

Julie Miller and I arrived on Wednesday night to set up. I just love spreading all my crafty stuff out on the table. My clipboard had my list of things to get done. Just realized this morning, I forgot to add a couple things to the list. Good thing I'm taking today off work. 

It even snowed one day--love it!!!  Until it was time to clean off my car to go home. I didn't have an ice scraper in my car. Brrrr! Thanks to Kris Allen for sharing hers. 

Loved seeing all the tables fill up with creative goodness!  

I'm already thinking about when we get to go back in March.

oh, we aren't finished yet

Here is another set of samples that we will be making at our Holiday Stamp Camp on December 8th. 

These were designed by Laura Warnecke. She always makes such detailed, adorable things. 

Better get signed up soon! Cost is $25/person. We will be at the Palouse Community Center. 

sneak peek of Stampin Success!

Just saw that Stampin Up! is updating their website this month--November 15th. Make sure to check it out at www.stampinup.com  I love to see the changes and updates they have made over the past 12 years that I have been a demonstrator.

Also--here is a peek into a wonderful publication I get from SU as a benefit of being a demonstrator. They have recently updated this program and have changed to sending them every other month. I am always behind on reading it, so I like the bi-monthly issues. Plus, there are more ideas!!  Click on this pic to see:

and there is more!

Here are the projects by Patty Snyder. So adorable--loving the biscotti wrap!

I am loving the Scentsational Season Bundle from the Holiday Mini Catalog. Kicking myself for not ordering it sooner. Luckily Patty will be at the PDL this weekend, so I can borrow it for a while. My favorite image is the snowflake mug. What's yours??  

Sign up for our wonderful Holiday Stamp Camp on Saturday, Dec 8th!!

Holiday stamp camp continued . . .

Here are two more of the projects we are doing for the Holiday Stamp Camp on Saturday December 8th at the Palouse Community Center. These are from Anna Nofsinger, one of the participating Stampin' Up! demonstrators. Loving the cute ornament as it would be a cute gift bag embellishment too. 

Holiday Stamp Camp

Saturday, December 8th from 9:30 am until the noon whistle.

Be watching for the samples from the other demonstrators. Here are the ones I am planning to make:

It is a card, a tag and a cookie wrap. We decided to all use Be of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper (aka DSP) so that everything coordinated.
