Fall Festival

I participated in a Fall Festival at one of the local elementary schools here. This was the first year in many that they had crafters set up so I don't think many were prepared to shop the tables. But all in all it went well and got me started on some other upcoming bazaars and craft shows.

So at the first part on the farthest left, I had my catalogs in back and some little grab bags in the front. The grab bags each held a single stamp, marker and some ribbon (all non-su products that I have had and needed to clear out), in front were my Santas Magic Keys, some halloween candy bars, bow die angles, tissue pouches and coffee cozy. Behind them was a spinning rack with some non-su stamps and my card class samples and schedule.

Next to that I had a book with all my bottlecap giant paperclip bookmarks, and christmas themed candy bars. 

And at the other end of the table I had some little kits for kids, my witches brooms licorice, photo flyers of the current sales and a sign up sheet for my mailing list.

small bows

After making those bows with the bow die, I wanted to do some small paperclip bookmarks. So I got out my oval punch, hot glue gun, hexagon punch and small circle punch to make these cute little bows. 

I made about 30 little bows in under an hour. They are really easy. Then I thought since I had so many I would add them to a tag from the now retired :( two tags die, slip a business card onto the back and pass them out. They are just too darn cute to keep all to myself. 

It's Tuesday!

It's Tuesday so you know what that means! No, not trash day, well it is that too but that is not as fun as what I was referring to :)  Tuesday is the day Stampin' Up! releases new digital downloads. There are some really cute new downloads today for you, including a pretty new set, a set for a new baby, and even a FREEBIE!

You can get these downloads as well as look at all previous downloads by clicking HERE.

Are you a digi scrapper, traditional paper scrapbooker, or do you do both? Leave me an answer and I will put your name in a drawing for a classic ink pad. 

Book marks

Ok, so while you are reading this I will be at a vendor fair. Please wish me luck! This is one of the items I took with me today. These are crumpled flower bookmarks. I have used some double sided DSP, some current and some retired to make these adorable scalloped flowers and turned them into really cute bookmarks. I hope the people at the craft show think they are as cute as I do. Hopefully not everyone has turned to reading all their books on a Kindle like I do making bookmarks obsolete, lol. 

If you are in the area, the vendor fair/quarter auction is taking place at the Village Inn and Suites in Coshocton at 1pm today. Come see me!
