Saturday was the annual Mother & Daughter Girl Scout Tea.  This is a photo mat I was selling to display pictures that were taken at the tea.  I stepped away from my table to take a peek at what was going on in the main hall and I never made it back to my table!  I ended up helping the mother/daughter models with their outfits.  So if you were at the tea and are interested in purchasing one of these mats for only $5, please email me at kathy.winter@hotmail.com and let me know!  The mat is made to fit inside an 8 x 10 frame (not included.) A 5 x 7 photo will fit in the white area on the mat. I can even change the colors to match the clothing you were wearing.

I also made over 200 place cards for the tea.  CLICK HERE  to see what they looked like.

If you would like to support the Girl Scouts, please place a Stampin' Up! order with me by May 28 using the hostess code WFNWVYJU and I will donate my 20% sales commission to the Indian River Service Unit.  There are a lot of stamps, inks, fabric, paper crafting/scrap booking supplies and accessories to choose from.  Many are on sale up to 60% off.

Keeping Busy

This is one of the reasons why I had to take a break from blogging last month.  I was very busy working on these place cards for the annual Girl Scout Mother/Daughter tea.  Although this is the first time in 13 years that I am not leading a troop........I still wanted to donate my services for making the name cards.  When I first played with the dress up framelits from the Stampin' Up! spring catalog, I knew that they would be perfect for the tea - which also is a fashion show.

I made over 200 place cards.  The mothers will get a "tent" card but the card I made for each girl is a little box for the coupons they will receive from various businesses in the area.

If you would like to support the Girl Scouts, place an order with me by May 28 using the hostess code WFNWVYJU  and I will donate my 20% sales commission to the Indian River Service Unit (Chesapeake, VA)

Merry Christmas!

This is the Christmas card our family sent this year.  Do you see that the gingerbread men are on a cookie sheet?!  If you came to one of my Stamp Camps this summer or fall you have already seen this card and made it yourself!  It uses my favorite set from the Holiday Catalog - Scentsational Season and the coordinating Framelit dies.  From the information I received from Stampin' Up! -  it looks like this set will not carry over, and won't be available after January 2.  

Here is another card that the Girl Scouts made at their Holiday Card making event, using the same set:

Tea Time

This is one of the 100+ place cards I made for the adults who attended today's Girl Scout tea and fashion show.  It is just a 3x5 piece of Designer Series Paper folded in half, with coordinating card stock trim and handles.

This is one of the 100+ place cards I made for the girls at today's tea.  They are actually little purses that open up.  They are made using a 6x6 piece of DSP and coordinating card stock.  They are really easy to make and I think they turned out cute.

This photo shows the inside of the purse, which was filled with coupons and a patch for each of the Girls Scouts in attendance.


My club members made these purses at this month's club meetings.  A gift card fits inside perfectly!  If you would like to learn how to make these and other fun projects, contact me now at kathy.winter@hotmail.com
