a source for crafting ideas, recipes, and more …

That’s right, just three days to go until Saturday’s show! (Hey, that rhymes!) So I’ve been busy trying to figure out my table set up, printing labels, and of course – making cards!

I got a special request to make my “snappy birthday” crab card with a “thanks” message instead, so I got busy tonight after dinner. I decided to add a little bit of glitter in the sandy part of the stamped image, and when I looked over at the crabs in my glitter tub, I couldn’t help but laugh. It looked like a crab glitter bath was taking place on my crafting table.

Here’s the final card:

I also managed to make a baby girl themed card with a new Impress stamp I just got in the mail:

And before I close this post I wanted to share a new product I’m selling on my Etsy site featuring some of my photography. They are 2009 photo calendars that are 8″ x 10″ in size. Right now I only have them available in six of my photographs, but if you go to my Flickr site and see a different photo you like, just let me know and I can have one printed for you. Special requests will need 1-2 weeks turnaround time, just an FYI. They’re great for hanging up in your office on a cubicle wall, on the refrigerator, or framed on a desk – plus they’re only $6 each! Oh and hey, they’d make great holiday gifts! 😉
