Christmas Is On It's Way!


Oh boy, only 8 weeks until Christmas! I have been so busy coming up with new ideas and working on gifts, I haven't had time to get them on here to show off! Oops! Here is one of my new creations I thought everyone would enjoy. These will spruce up any gift bag or package with the sparkling red and white cardstock I used. If the paper isn't enough, they are embellished with black glitter dots for the buttons and rhinestones on the belt.


I have a lot more gift ideas coming so stay tuned!!

Fall is here, so are some new embellishments!


It's been awhile since my last post, that has to do with my new 8lb 8oz bundle of little boy that joined us on August 24th. Since then it has been a chore getting everyone accustomed to our new life with 3 kids under 4.


Last week I stepped back into my world of crafts and got started on some cute pumpkins to add to my embellishment category. I hand punched them out of textured cardstock, dabbed each piece on an ink pad to give the edges some emphasis, then dotted a bit of glitter glue on the edges (for the needed sparkle that is my signature!) I made some with a foam square on the back for embellishing cards, scrapbook pages or anything else that needs a little fall color and also mounted some on black tags with bright orange sparkly ribbon. I have them listed for quantity of 3 on my Etsy site so check them out! http://www.enchantedsisters.etsy.com/.

A Few Days Left



Since I have a few days until baby comes I decided to post some of the stuff I made for the festival and didn't get up on the website. I made these really cute gift card holders/greeting cards, perfect for birthdays, baby showers, bridal showers, anniversaries, etc. They are made from heavy cardstock and decorated with really cute paper flowers and rhinestones. I left them generic, but can stamp any type of sentiment like "Congratulations" or "Just for You" inside. If you need one for a certain occasion or in certain colors, let me know. I'm sure I can come up with something perfect for you.

I Made It Through the Weekend...



What a weekend! I had so much fun at my booth in the festival, I definitely want to do it again! Maybe not 9 months pregnant, but soon! Friday started out kinda slow, after setting up the tent I had people stopping by to check out my stuff and by mid afternoon I had a few sales. Toward the end of the afternoon a customer came by and asked for a chipboard album in certain colors and since I brought most of my paper, I was able to make it for her on the spot. It was hectic, but worth it and I am so glad I had my support team there to help me out with other customers while I worked. Saturday morning had a great turn out until the rain came about 1:00. We were able to take down our tents and get out of there by 7:00. I had so many people helping me load up it only took 15 minutes!



Thanks to everyone who helped me make my first festival a success!
