Blendabilities and Craft Shows

Blendabilities and Craft Show Update

Happy Fall!

The weather is cooler, the leaves are changing.....it's such a beautiful time of year!  I hope when you take a break from stamping, you are able to get outside and enjoy your weather---depending on where you are, of course! :)  Snow in Ohio???  Rain in Texas??  Happy to be in NC right now! :)

For my September stamp nights, we dove right in to Blendabilities!  Everyone was so excited!  I finally purchased a fair amount of colors, so I thought it was a good time to showcase them.  :)

This was my first sample of the card they made.  I had to keep telling myself to stay in the lines, but my hands were so excited to use these fabulous markers, I could hardly contain myself!  ;) 

 I was able (and more in control) to make a few more:

I left these blank so I could add my sentiments later....

Everyone really enjoyed using the set "Something to Say" for their sentiments. 

Thank you to my fellow SU demonstrators for making these awesome Blendabilities color charts!  In addition to a finished card and an extra flower colored with the markers, they made a color chart of the colors I had for their idea book. 

Do you see my sad medium, Rich Razzleberry??  I called SU! demo support and they said to just throw that defective one away and a new one would be in the mail.....I got a WHOLE NEW SET!  Love our Demo support and SU! family! 

Everyone LOVED how you can color over the pearls and rhinestones! 

One more thing I showcased at the stamp nights was the Box Punch Board....LOVE!!  I wanted to show everyone exactly what this board is capable of and why you NEED it!  So, I made a box of every size!

I really like the cardstock DSP from the Holiday Catalog.  I could not make every box from the pack of DSP, so I tried regular cardstock (great) and regular DSP (not great).  

Now, on to my Craft Show update.....

I am happy to report that I am already ahead of the game!  I don't want to go overboard, because I know November will be here before I know it, but I already have made a few "new" items for the show! Take a look!

I ordered the CurvyBox die---I LOVE it!  I ordered the Fry Box die---LOVE it!

And, my newest addiction:::

Countdown boxes!!!  I really like this idea and I used the photopolymer set "25Days."  I want to make several of these sets.  I am trying to make them versatile---counting down to holidays, birthdays, special occasions......our Tiny Treat Boxes are awesome and very sturdy! For this set, I used Perfect Plum, Pool Party, and Wild Wasabi.

Happy Stampin'!
