Vendor Fair project...
Hi there, everyone! I just wanted to post a quick note to say "Thank You" to Jennifer Aquino with Mary Kay and Becky Kilgore with Pampered Chef for coming over for the Vendor Fair. We had lots of fun chatting and I was happy to spend time getting to know you both better this weekend! We had so much fun, we're doing it again on 3 Dec from 6-9 PM and will be adding Scentsy and possibly more, so I hope some of you can join us again! I'll post more information soon!
In the mean time, here is the SUPER CUTE gift tag that we made this weekend! I used the Stamp of the Month, Cherish the Day, and the December 25thstamp set along with the Believe paper pack and New England Ivy ink and a Bling Assortment button to make it! Super easy and super cute to add to a gift!

My layout from corporate...
that I received while I was in Detroit at Regionals is soooo nice! I wanted to share it with you all, even though it's not one that I made. They do a small awards presentation for the group that attends and I was honored to received the highest Team Sales for the quarter. Thanks so much to my team, as they are the reason I was shockingly blessed with this award! The Angel Bay Crafting Hearts team was #1 in Team Sales for size 16-29 for Third Quarter 2011 for those in attendance at the Detroit Regional Celebration. As soon as I get the photo printed off, I will get it on the layout and post a new photo, but I wanted to share this with you today!

Vendor Fair update...and a piece of artwork!
we are confirmed for a Mary Kay consultant at the event next weekend. So, as of today that gives us Close To My Heart, Pampered Chef, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, and Mary Kay. I'm still awaiting confirmation for Scentsy and Premier Jewelry. Again, we will be here from 6-9PM on Fri 11 Nov, Veteran's Day, and 9-12 AM on Sat 12 Nov, followed by my monthly FREE crop from 5-11 Saturday night.
Now, here is another card that I made at Detroit Regionals last month. For now, I'm just posing a photo and will give you directions later. It's been a long busy weekend and I'm exhausted, but want to at least give you something new to look at!

Hi there, everyone!
So, I had lunch today with a dear friend who made me do some thinking! (Thanks so much for the inspiration I needed Isabel!!!) It has caused me to re-think how I'm interacting with all of you on my blog. So, I'm really going to make a better effort to start doing daily posts, or at least every other day with small tid-bits and start sharing more artwork. I've been sitting at the table creating all afternoon since I left her and am going to jump right in! Some of the artwork I'll be sharing this month is also from the Close To My Heart Regional Celebration that I just attended at the end of Oct. and I just needed to do some finishing touches on it. So, this first card that I'm going to post is one of those...I hope you like it! (Note - the colors aren't exact in the first pic, I guess due to lighting...not sure what was wrong. The second photo is fine. Sorry! You can see the papers in the links with the list of supplies!)
Wishes Card Confidence Program - Item # 9033 (Gallery, Pg 119 - rotated 90 deg.)
Preparation:
1. Cut leaf, tag, and frames from AP cartridge.
2. Cut 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" card, 3 1/2" x 4" piece B&T and 2" x 4" Chocolate CS.
3. Apply Glitz Glitter to leaf and Milepost Circle and set aside to dry.
4. Fold orange B&T in half to form 5 1/2" x 4 1/4 " card base with fold on left edge.
5. Attach two Bigger Brads to top right corner of brown B&T paper and attach brown B&T to card front 3/8" from top and left edges.
6. Attach Chocolate CS to card front 5/8" from left edge and flush with top.
7. Stamp the following with Chocolate ink:
~ "Sending you" sentiment on card front immediately below brown B&T
~"happiness" sentiment on large ticket shape, using masking technique
8. Attach brad and small ribbon slide to Milepost circle.
9. Using 3-D foam tape between layers, attach Bamboo and Goldrush frames.
10. Attach Milepost circle to bottom left corner of frames.
Putting the card together:
1. Using 3-D foam tape, attach layered frame to card front 1" from top and left edges.
2. Attach "happiness" ticket centered on inside of card base.
3. Attach glitter leaf to center of frame with 3-D foam tape.
Let me know if you have any questions or if you'd like to order any of these items to make your own cards! The great thing is that all of these items can then be used for LOTS of other projects, especially the AWESOME AP cartridge!!!
