Happy Sunday

Well, this has sure been a busy busy week! I went back to work after a week off and dang! Emails?! 182!!! Didn't take much and they were gone. All else is calm, so that is good.

I had a busy with with orders as well. I made 10 packages of bachelorette party invites. That's 80 cards and 320 itty bitty bows! I kept thinking as I was making those little bows, gotta be a better way?! It was great though. I am glad people like those little creations. They are so cute!

Yesterday I made a few cards and packaged them as an assortment with 10 cards in each package. Priced them at $12.75. That is such a bargain deal! That's $1.27 a piece....not bad! I also made a few more Christmas tags. Three craft shows set up for October! Busy month.

Well, better get started on a special order.

Hugs!!

Hubby was out of town all week and after all my laundry was done from me throughout the week, he came home and filled up the hamper again! Yikes! OK I will do that tomorrow.

Fall is almost here...

I can't believe summer is almost gone. It's Labor day weekend, our California State Fair is in their final days. I've been out there once. I am hoping to go at least one more time.

I can't really say we have much of a summer. It hasn't been that hot. Usually we'll have a month or so of three digit weather, but not so much this year. We have been very fortunate not to have many fires in Northern Calif., however, Southern Calif. has their troubles. I hope they contain it soon. It's very sad to see all that beautiful land burned, or mostly sadness for all the people who have lossed homes, their animals, the wild animals as well. It's just too sad!

I haven't been up to much this past week. I made a few Christmas cards. That always puts me in a cheery mood! Next will be the christmas music, but I'll wait until Tuesday. So, let me post a couple for your view. Feel free to post any comments or suggestions!

Saturday night was pretty fun! My husband did the honors of stirring the big ceramic tea pot and picked a name for the August drawing. I am proud to announce CRICKET4ME'S was the lucky winner of the drawing.

Saturday Tea Time

I had this really nice lady that made a purchase from my shop. She had a request and very challenging for me to say the least. But all went well and everything turned out so cute!! My customer ordered 50 Halloween cards and 50 Halloween Stress Kits.

Thank you to oriental trading for having adorable erasers in I managed to get these packets ready in one evening, with the help of my girlfriend. The real challenge was creating 50 different cards. I am proud to say they turned out so cute. I posted a couple of pictures so you can see!!

I do love taking the special orders. You dig really deep down inside and challenge yourself to bring out the creativity you poses inside. Once you get going, you go, but once you can't think, you stop. (kind of like writer's block) I went for a day or two where I just couldn't come up with anything. All ended well, package went out today!

I have spent so much time on my side business, I have neglected my hubby, so we have a date tonight! We are going to Reno to see the "Allen Parsons Project"! I am pretty excited. Dinner first, then the concert! I better get going to get ready!

So, if any followers are reading this, don't forget there is two weeks until the drawing!! Get your items now!!

Hugs!
