craft show!!!!!

the table dress rehearsal..

looking good table!

close up of my babies..

i had to say goodbye to a lot of these guys..

it was sad at first, but totally worth it!

the real deal!

first customers!

ok it wasn't that sad, look how happy i am!

mixing business with pleasure

an action shot of me working!

i had to refigure my table set up as i sold SOOOOOO many cards!  yeah me!  

i learned so much from this experience.  what to do next time and what not to do..  like maybe next time i'll bring a companion with me as sometimes i have to go pee.  but overall,  it was a great first craft show and im super excited to work towards more..  realistically, i'm probably aiming more for fall and christmas shows.. 

i wanted to offer some other options...

so here's some cute gift tags

look it's a gift tag party!

i may have been watching twilight (for the fourth time) while making these...

don't judge me.

they are pretty, right?

i would like to get a gift with these on them..

and here's a few more bookmarks...

here's what i came up with for the raffle prize.  would u like to win this? it has a thank you card, bookmark and two different style gift tags.  i think it turned out pretty nice!

so i've been a busy little beaver over here...

this is my all time favourite card, to date, that i've made! i made another one, almost identical, for my friend's bday, and i secretly wish i was my friend too, so i could give it to myself.

a few more baby cards...

and some mother's day cards..

they don't look so good in these pictures, but they r nice in real life. trust me..

this could be a mothers day card too, no?

just thinking about u...

random thank you card...

group shot!

book marks!

so i was thinking, what am i gonna make for the craft sale raffle prize? if i give just one card, it's boring.  if i give a bunch of cards then what do i have left to sell?? so that brings us to experimental craft week, first project, BOOK MARKS!!

i know, i know the pictures r blurry, but u try taking pictures while standing on my bed

who doesn't like robots???

not bad...

the "L" one is my personalized bookmark, so back off!

baby "card" making machine...

i made this easter one for my all time favourite nephews!

Bahhhhhh

this one has already been sold!

i know my picture skills kind of suck. i just get so excited to put the cards in their wrappers and have a finished project, that i forget to take the pictures first.

you get the point though right?

cute!!

yes babies!!

yea cards!

im gonna be at a craft fair!

im really excited about this! i have about a month to make some mother's day/ father's day/ baby shower and wedding shower cards. im feeling pretty good about this. am i forgetting any other important spring occasions?

check out the link and mark yr calendar's, my table and me welcome you!
