My first craft fair

I attended my first craft fair on Sunday and I loved it! It was great to meet other crafters and get experience at selling my crafts. Ok so getting there could have gone smoother, it was hailing and a windscreen wiper fell off my car... not the best start. Once I got there everything was fine, I made enough money to cover the cost of the table and a bit extra. Overall I really enjoyed it. In the rush of getting everything packed and in the car I forgot to take my camera to get a pic of my table. Oh well.

Another good thing that came out of the fair was I was inspired to finally make a facebook page! Heres the link, let me know what you think =)

Im taking a break from making new cards for the next few days and I'll start fresh next week. Hopefully by then I'll know if I've been successful in applying to be on the Crafty Cardmakers DT, it was extended until the weekend. Ooo the suspense lol!

Thanks for dropping bye!

Fizzy Moon Christmas cards

Hi everyone! Well I've started to really focus on Christmas cards now and I bought a pack of Fizzy Moon chipboard characters last week, so I started experimenting. I love the cute characters, they work well with loads of colour combinations. Heres what I came up with:

Sweet with traditional colours and festive ribbon

Bright and sparkly

Sorry I can't get this pic to go the right way up!

 Thats three more cards for the Christmas pile but a lot more to go! I'd better get on with it lol

Bye for now!

Lazy day

I've had a lazy day today, assembling toppers for Christmas cards. Well I'm feeling a bit under the weather again so this was just what I needed! It felt quite relaxing and theraputic.

 Can't wait to make Christmas cards out of these for the "Christmas craft fair" box. They are just too sweet!

Thanks for dropping by!

Thank you Teacher card

As I'm looking at selling my cards at school fairs this summer, I decided to have a go at making Thank you cards for teachers. Here is my attempt. Sorry about the photos, I have to get better at taking pics of my cards!

Papers and apple border are a free gift from this months Simply cards and papercraft magazine. Thankyou stamp is Docrafts, bear stamp is Fizzymoon and I printed the sentiment off my computer. I'm quite pleased with it for a first effort and I'll be making some more later =]
