Where have I been....? Lots of Projects!

It has been a while since I blogged. I took a much needed break. I have still been crafting just as much, even taking photos of my projects. However I just haven't posted anything to my blog.

So let me update you since I posted last.

Last August My Pink Stamper (MPS) decided she no longer wanted to create MPS products. Therefore we no longer were on the MPS design team. I was honored to be a part of the MPS design team. It was a great experience, it challenged me to create for assignments, and meet alot of great people. But it was nice to have a break from having assignments that were due.

During my time off from posting on my blog I have made alot of
great projects & events:

Hope for the Holidays Show

Table Numbers

I made 200 of these butterfly's with a V cut out of it for my friends wedding. They used them as place cards and they rested on the glasses at each seat.

I would like to share with you what I have been doing lately. In the middle of November I had a booth at a local Holiday Sale. It was called Hope for the Holidays and it was a benefit for a local Women's Shelter for those trying to escape abuse. You can learn more about Fair Haven Women's Center HERE. 

Products I sold:

Glittered ornaments w/ vinyl

Cards

Post-it Note Holders w/ pen (great for teacher gifts)

Homemade Apple Butter

 My friend Carly makes bows, tutu's & tie dye onesies. So I took some of her stuff to sell. I wasn't sure how to display everything, until I thought of the trees. I love how these bows look on the tree. My sister-n-law even wanted to buy the whole tree of bows.

Since then....

my husband & I have been working on this...

The Gate

Cafe & Bookstore

at our church

 We remodeled this space in the foyer at church for the Cafe & Bookstore. I recently took over this ministry in October. We just opened our new cafe last weekend. Lets just say we spent many long days at church to get this project completed but I love how it turned out.

The books are displayed on the wall, across from the cafe, in crates that we made. After making these. I would love to make crates to store stuff in all around my house. It would be great for an entry way (each kid could have a crate), above an office desk, and of course in a scrapbook room. The possibilities are endless.

Now we are enjoying this Holiday Season. Check out www.mypinkstamper.com for great Holiday Projects everyday. The design team has made some special videos, just for you.
